Abstract

A spa cover and sensor are disclosed. The spa cover may include a rigid portion and a floating portion connected to the rigid portion to reduce heat loss. A sensor may be provided within the spa cover, the spa tub, or a combination of the cover and tub to determine when a cover is in an open or closed position over the spa tub. A processor may communicate with other automated features of the spa and/or cover, such as, causing air bladders in the cover to automatically inflate when the cover is in a closed position or locking or unlocking the spa cover. The spa cover and spa tub include one or more electromagnets to lock the spa in the closed configuration. The processor may communicate with features on the spa, such as initiating custom start settings when the cover is removed from the spa tub, or initiate energy saving functions with the cover is placed over the spa tub.
