SMARTOP BY LEISURE CONCEPTS

Smartop
Upright 3.0

A spa cover that stays lightweight, opens effortlessly, and needs only 8 inches behind your spa.

Smartop Upright 3.0 combines a rigid spa cover with an integrated hydraulic lifting system. When open, the cover stands vertically behind your spa to create additional privacy and protection from the wind.

ONE OF SMARTOP'S BIGGEST ADVANTAGES

No Waterlogging. No Heavy, Saturated Cover.

Smartop is designed with zero water absorption.

Traditional foam-core spa covers can absorb moisture as they age. That added moisture can make a cover increasingly heavy and more difficult to remove.

Smartop takes a different approach. Its rigid construction does not absorb water like a traditional foam cover, helping it remain manageable year after year.

SPACE-SAVING DESIGN

Opens Up. Not Out.

Upright 3.0 requires just 8 inches of clearance behind your spa.

Instead of extending far behind the hot tub, the cover rises vertically. That makes Upright especially useful for spas installed closer to fences, walls or other backyard features.

AN ADDED BENEFIT Privacy + Wind Screen

When Upright 3.0 is in the open position, the vertical cover creates a natural barrier behind your spa that can provide additional privacy and help block wind.
