Abstract: A cover for a spa includes a first cover member and a second cover member hingedly connected to one another about a seam. The cover further includes a sleeve associated with of one of the cover members at an approximate midpoint between an outer edge of the cover member and the seam. The sleeve is configured to receive a connecting rod of a lifting mechanism therethrough for transmitting an uncovering and/or covering force from the lifting mechanism to the cover.

Abstract: A spa according to the present invention includes a shell having a plurality of seating positions formed in the shell, a base supporting the shell, and a hydrotherapy system configured to draw a fluid from the spa and inject the fluid back into said spa as at least one a pressurized jet. The hydrotherapy system includes a pump for circulating the fluid and a jet pod arranged in at least one of the seating positions and in fluid communication with the pump.

Abstract: A cover assembly for a spa having a base and a shell supported by the base is provided. A cover assembly includes a cover member selectively movable between a covered position and an uncovered position, and a lifting assembly configured to effect movement of said cover member between the covered position and the uncovered position. The lifting assembly includes a first lifting arm and a second lifting arm. The first lifting arm is pivotally and slidably coupled to the base at a first end thereof and pivotally coupled to the cover member and to the second lifting arm at a second end thereof.

Abstract: A cover assembly for a spa having a base and a shell supported by the base is provided. The cover assembly includes a cover member selectively movable between a covered position and an uncovered position, and a lifting assembly having a first lifting mechanism rotatably coupled to the cover member and to the base. The first lifting mechanism provides two axes of rotation for the cover member relative to the base.
