Why the Medium fits the Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)

The AIRCAP 1™ comes in six sizes covering square spas from 77" to 94". Each size is built to overhang its band slightly — that is how a spa cover is meant to sit — so the Medium, which fits cabinets 86"–88", covers the Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)'s 86" x 86" shell with the right overhang.

At 86" the Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560) sits at the bottom of the Medium's 86"–88" range, so there is room to spare: the same cover fits anything up to 88". No other Riptide Spas model in the Spa Fitter has the Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)'s 86" x 86" cabinet. The 18 Riptide Spas models we fit sit on 7 footprints, and the Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560) is on number 6 of 7 from the smallest; together they span 4 of the six AIRCAP 1 sizes.

Cabinet dimensions can change between model years. Before ordering, measure your Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560) at its widest point across the top, in both directions, including any acrylic lip that overhangs the cabinet — the SureFit™ guide walks through it in two measurements. If a figure you have found elsewhere is larger than ours, an overhanging lip is the usual reason. If your spa measures between two sizes, round up.

Every spa in our catalogue that measures 86" x 86" is on one page: hot tubs that take an 86" × 86" cover — the same AIRCAP 1™ Medium, at the same price.

How the AIRCAP 1™ is built

Instead of a rigid foam core wrapped in vinyl, the AIRCAP 1™ uses welded drop-stitch construction: a sealed air chamber with no foam to absorb water, so it does not become the waterlogged two-person lift that ends most foam covers. More on how it insulates, how it holds up, and why it is foam-free — or estimate what your current foam cover weighs.

Riptide Spas Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560) cover: common questions

What size hot tub cover fits the Riptide Spas Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)?

The Riptide Spas Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560) takes the AIRCAP 1 Medium, which fits square hot tubs measuring 86"–88" across. The Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)'s cabinet measures 86" x 86", inside that band. Measure your spa side to side across the top of the cabinet to confirm before ordering.

Will the AIRCAP 1 fit a Riptide Spas Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)?

Yes — the Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)'s 86" x 86" square cabinet falls in the AIRCAP 1 Medium's 86"–88" range, and the Ziptech modular skirt system ships with three skirt lengths so the drop over the cabinet adjusts without a custom order. Cabinet sizes can change between model years, so confirm with two quick measurements.

How much does a replacement cover for the Riptide Spas Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560) cost?

The AIRCAP 1 costs $1,195 in every size, including the pump, three Ziptech skirt lengths, and tie-down straps, with free US shipping and 30-day returns. Unlike a foam cover it has no foam core to waterlog, so it stays at its original 35–40 lb weight for life.

How heavy is a replacement cover for the Riptide Spas Starlight Eclipse Platinum (RB560)?

The AIRCAP 1 Medium weighs 35–40 lb and keeps that weight permanently — its sealed drop-stitch air core cannot absorb water. A foam cover starts at 40–75 lb and gains weight as the foam saturates.
