Co-Lift Strap Support
Product Overview
Spa cover seams are often the first point of failure; the CLS200 provides the structural reinforcement needed to prevent tearing during daily operation.
In our experience, the Life Essentials CLS200 is a reliable solution for homeowners looking to protect their investment in a high-quality spa cover. By distributing the lifting force across a wider surface area, this strap support alleviates the concentrated stress that typically causes seam separation. It is a standard specification for those who find traditional cover lifters still put too much strain on the vinyl hinge.
Benefits & What Makes It Different
Seam Stress Reduction
The CLS200 redirects lifting tension away from the vulnerable center hinge, preventing the common V-shape tear that ruins cover insulation.
Universal Compatibility
Designed to work alongside most existing mechanical cover lifters or as a standalone manual aid for standard hot tub covers.
Weather-Resistant Materials
Constructed from heavy-duty webbing that withstands constant UV exposure and high-moisture environments without fraying or losing tensile strength.
Compatibility
- Standard spa covers
- Hydraulic cover lifters
- Manual pivot lifters
- All-weather vinyl covers
When To Use This
Pro Tip
Pool techs often install these on older, water-heavy covers to buy the homeowner another season of use before a full cover replacement is required.
Common Questions & Instructions
How does the CLS200 prevent spa cover damage?
It acts as a cradle for the cover, ensuring that when you pull or lift, the force is applied to the strap rather than the delicate stitching of the vinyl seams. This prevents the foam cores from shifting and the vinyl from stretching over time.
Can I use the Co-Lift Strap Support with an existing hydraulic lifter?
Yes, it is frequently used to provide extra support for heavy, waterlogged covers that are putting too much strain on hydraulic arms and mounting brackets. It helps distribute the weight more evenly across the lifter's bar.
How long will the Life Essentials strap support last?
While it depends on direct sun exposure and local climate, these straps typically last 3 to 5 years before the material shows signs of UV degradation requiring replacement. Regular inspection for fraying is recommended.
