Buyers beware
Mountain Home Center sold two hot tub covers for the same Tahoe property. Both failed far sooner than expected.
When we questioned the second failure, management explained that covers “don’t last long up here” and that replacement every couple of years should be expected—especially for vacation rentals. That response suggests the company knowingly sells products that aren’t designed for the conditions they’re used in.
These were residential-grade covers installed in a high-altitude, high-UV, snow-heavy environment with daily use. There are commercial-grade options available on the market, but Mountain Home doesn’t offer them and didn’t recommend alternatives.
If you’re buying spa equipment for a mountain or rental property, do your homework and ask for real performance specifications.
