Superior Water Resistance.
Made with drop stitch fabric, which is coated with a waterproof polyurethane, ensuring the cover does not absorb water. This keeps the cover lightweight and prevents issues like mold or mildew growth which is an issue with traditional foam hot tub covers.
Traditional Foam Covers
Foam cores, even when encased in vinyl, can eventually absorb water if the outer layer is compromised by tears, punctures, or environmental wear. Once wet, foam loses its insulating properties and can become a breeding ground for mold.

Enhanced Durability.
Our drop stitch technology results in a cover that is highly resistant to punctures, tears, and UV damage due to the robust fabric weave and coatings. The cover maintains its shape and strength under pressure. Think of inflatable paddleboards and their rigidity and durability.
Traditional Foam Covers
The foam inside these covers can degrade over time, especially when exposed to moisture or UV rays, leading to a loss of shape and insulation efficiency. The vinyl exterior can also crack or tear, reducing the cover's effectiveness.

Better Insulation.
The unique structure of drop stitch fabric, with its thousands of vertical threads, traps air when inflated, creating a high-insulation barrier that keeps heat in and reduces energy consumption for maintaining the hot tub's temperature.
Traditional Foam Covers
While foam does insulate, its performance drops significantly when wet. Moreover, the insulation value of foam can degrade over time as the material ages or gets damaged.

Lightweight and Manageable.
It's lightweight making it easy to remove, and it won't absorb moisture like traditional foam covers. The AIRCAP is 20% lighter out of the box and it will retain the weight during it's lifespan.
Traditional Covers
These can become heavy, particularly when wet, making them cumbersome to handle. The foam absorbs moisture and foam covers can become heavy and difficult to remove.
Longevity and Cost-Effectiveness.
The durability of our drop stitch technology means that The AIRCAP will have a longer lifespan, providing better value over time. The initial cost is similar to a foam cover, and you won't need to replace it every 3-4 years like traditional foam hot tub covers.
Traditional Covers
They generally need replacement more frequently due to degradation, especially if they've absorbed water or suffered damage. This can lead to higher long-term costs.

Aesthetic Appeal.
The AIRCAP offers a modern, sleek look, and our technology allows for custom shapes and sizes without the added bulk of foam. The cover remains taut and aesthetically pleasing even after extensive use.
Traditional Covers
Over time, they can sag, deform, or show signs of wear more visibly, which can detract from the overall appearance of your hot tub.
Customization and Flexibility.
Our drop stitch technology allows for precise customization in terms of size, shape, and even color or design. The AIRCAP can also adapt to changes in hot tub design or size more easily.
Traditional Covers
Customization is more limited due to the nature of foam, and any significant alteration or repair after initial manufacturing can be challenging.

Environmental Impact.
When it's time for disposal, drop stitch materials, particularly those with PVC coatings, have recycling options, though not universally. However, their longevity reduces the frequency of replacement.
Traditional Covers
Foam is notoriously hard to recycle, and when discarded, it can contribute to landfill waste. The chemicals used in foam can also be an environmental concern.
