COVANA OASIS Hot Tub Cover
The safest spa cover in the world!
The world’s only automated gazebo for hot tubs provides security, privacy,
energy efficiency, and peace of mind.
Hot tub compatibility
Most square, rectangular, or round hot tubs with a flat surface (no protruding
headrests) of up to 92″ x 98″ with a height between 34″ and 48″. The
dimensions of the Standard (Std) and Long Side (LS) models are illustrated
below. The dashed line dimensions include the recommended clearance for
maintenance. It is important to take the entrance location in consideration
when choosing between the Standard (Std) and Long Side (LS) models. If you
don’t know which model to choose, or if you are unsure whether your spa will
fit under the cover or not, please contact Covana for the Technical Support
department: 1-877-278-8010.
The seal of the cover will have to be installed on a flat surface on the
acrylic of the hot tub. The minimum turn radius of the seal is 4″. Ensure the
seal will be able to go all around the hot tub while continuously touching the
inner shell. The colored area illustrated below is where the seal must be
applied. Therefore, it will be impossible to apply the seal on an area smaller
than 65″ x 70″.
