How to Measure the Radius of your Corners

 

Some covers have rounded corners. The diagram above shows a rounded corner with imaginary dotted red lines.
The length of the red line represents the measurement of the radius corner. The lines start where the cover begins to curve,
and end where they cross. Be sure to measure all corners and that they are ALL the same size!
IMPORTANT:
If in doubt, a slightly smaller radius will slightly over hang the spa while a larger radius will not cover the spa completely.

One of the difficult things for many people, is trying to measure the radius of a rounded corner.
There are numerous ways one my go about figuring this measurement, but here are the easiest we have found so far.

Method #1:
If your existing cover fits properly, set it upside-down on top of
a piece of newspaper. Line up the edges of the newspaper with the edges of the cover. The
distance from the corner of the newspaper, to where the cover completely covers
the paper is the radius of the corner.


 

Method #2:
You can also use a framing square to measure the radius of your spa corners. Set
the square against the edge of the spa as shown below. The radius of the rounded
corner is the distance from the inside corner of the square, to where the cover just
touches the square.

Again if its easier for you, you can simply trace your corner and bring down to the shop and we will measure it for you.
