Make removing and replacing your round spa cover easier with this gas strut assisted cover lifter. The steel frame supports the cover while your spa is open, helping keep it off the ground and reducing unnecessary handling.

Installation requires drilling into the spa cabinet. The base plate sits underneath the spa. The lifter must be secured with screws at both fixing locations shown in the supplied installation instructions. The manufacturer confirms these fixings are required for stability.

Check Compatibility Before Ordering

Height alone does not confirm compatibility. Your spa diameter, cover dimensions and thickness, cabinet construction, access beneath the spa and clearance for the lifting arms and raised cover all need to be considered.

  • Confirm your spa is round and no more than 42 inches (approximately 1067 mm) high.
  • Measure the spa diameter and cover dimensions.
  • Confirm the base plate can be positioned underneath your spa in accordance with the supplied instructions.
  • Check that your spa cabinet is suitable for drilling and screw fixing at both required locations.
  • Allow enough clearance around and above the spa for the lifter to move and the cover to remain raised.
  • Check your spa manufacturer's requirements for cabinet fixings and support beneath the spa before installation.

If you are unsure, contact Perfect Pools with your spa make, model, measurements and photos before purchasing or drilling. We can help check suitability and obtain further installation advice where needed.

How It Works

The base plate is positioned underneath the spa, and the lifter is secured to the spa cabinet at both fixing locations shown in the instructions. The steel arms support the cover, while the gas strut assists the lifting movement. The cover remains supported off the ground while you use the spa.

Installation Requirements

The manufacturer has confirmed that the supplied installation instructions are correct. Installation requires the base plate beneath the spa and drilling and screwing into the spa cabinet at both locations shown. Follow the supplied instructions for the exact positioning, assembly and fixings.

Both fixing locations must be secured before use. The manufacturer advises that the lifter will not be stable without the required screws. Do not use it as a freestanding unit or rely on the base plate alone. If you cannot install it as instructed, contact Perfect Pools before proceeding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the base plate go?
Underneath the spa, in the position shown in the supplied installation instructions.

Does installation require drilling into the spa cabinet?
Yes. Drilling and screw fixing into the spa cabinet are required at both fixing locations shown in the instructions. These fixings are necessary for stability.

Can I use it without the cabinet fixings?
No. The manufacturer confirms that the lifter will not be stable without the required drilling and screws.

Will it fit my round spa?
It is intended for round spas up to 42 inches (approximately 1067 mm) high. Suitability also depends on your spa and cover dimensions, cabinet construction, access beneath the spa and clearance. Contact us if you need help checking your model.

Can the base plate be installed under any spa?
