The majority of spas on the market today weigh less than 100 lbs. per square foot when filled with water. Any deck built to code would support 275 lbs. per square foot. That would allow any spa we sell to be placed on it with proper support.

People frequently ask how much weight a cover will hold. While all of our covers meet or exceed ASTM Standard F1346-91¹, there is not specific weight rating for each specific thickness and density of foam. There are many reasons for covers not having a "weight rating" or "load rating", but the most prevalent would be general liability issues. That being said, the chart below compares the overall strength of different foam densities and thicknesses. See similar questions...
