  • Claim: 1. A hard spa cover comprising: a first section; a second section; and a third section, wherein each of the first, second, and third sections are separately removable from the spa, and wherein the hard spa cover is configured to cover an interior of a spa when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa.
  • Claim: 2. The hard spa cover of claim 1, wherein the first section sealingly engages the third section along one side of the third section and the second section sealingly engages the third section along an opposite side of the third section when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa.
  • Claim: 3. The hard spa cover of claim 2, wherein rotation of the first section relative to the third section disengages the first section from the third section and allows the first section to be removed from the spa independently of the third section.
  • Claim: 4. The hard spa cover of claim 3, wherein rotation of the third section relative to the second section disengages the third section from the second section and allows the third section to be removed from the spa independently of the second section.
  • Claim: 5. The hard spa cover of claim 4, further comprising a cover storage rack attached to an outside portion of the spa, wherein the first section, the second section, and the third section are configured to be separately stacked one at a time on the cover storage rack.
  • Claim: 6. The hard spa cover of claim 1, further comprising a seal that is configured to provide a sealing engagement between the hard spa cover and the spa when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa.
  • Claim: 7. The hard spa cover of claim 1, wherein the first section comprises one or more first anchors that are configured to secure the first section to the spa and to urge engagement of the first section with the third section, and wherein the second section comprises one or more second anchors that are configured to secure the second section to the spa and to urge engagement of the second section with the third section.
  • Claim: 8. The hard spa cover of claim 1, wherein the first section comprises a first mating surface along one side, the third section comprises second and third mating surfaces along opposite sides, and the second section comprises a fourth mating surface along one side, wherein the first mating surface complimentarily mates with the second mating surface when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa, and wherein the third mating surface complimentarily mates with the fourth mating surface when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa.
  • Claim: 9. The hard spa cover of claim 8, wherein the first mating surface comprises one or more first ledges or one or more first notches, wherein the second mating surface comprises one or more second ledges or one or more second notches, wherein the third mating surface comprises one or more third ledges or one or more third notches, wherein the fourth mating surface comprises one or more fourth ledges or one or more fourth notches, wherein the one or more first ledges matingly engage with the one or more second notches or the one or more second ledges matingly engage with the one or more first notches when the first mating surface complimentarily mates with the second mating surface, and wherein the one or more third ledges matingly engage with the one or more fourth notches or the one or more fourth ledges matingly engage with the one or more third notches when the third mating surface complimentarily mates with the fourth mating surface.
  • Claim: 10. A hard spa cover comprising: a first section; and a second section, wherein the first section and the second section are slidably removable from the spa along storage rails of a cover storage rack, and wherein the hard spa cover is configured to cover an interior of a spa when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa.
  • Claim: 11. The hard spa cover of claim 10, wherein the second section comprises tracks along opposite ends of the second section, wherein the first section engages the tracks and is configured to move along the tracks to slide the first section onto the second section.
  • Claim: 12. The hard spa cover of claim 11, wherein the second section is configured to move along the storage rails while the first section is positioned on top of the second section.
  • Claim: 13. The hard spa cover of claim 10, further comprising a third section, wherein the first section is rotationally coupled to the third section along one side of the third section and the third section sealingly engages the second section along an opposite side of the third section when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa.
  • Claim: 14. The hard spa cover of claim 13, further comprising a seal that sealingly engages the hard spa cover and a top surface of the spa when the hard spa cover is installed on the spa, wherein a first portion of the seal is attached to the first section, a second portion of the seal is attached to the second section, and a third portion of the seal is attached to the third section.
  • Claim: 15. The hard spa cover of claim 14, wherein rotation of the first section relative to the third section disengages the first portion of the seal from the top surface of the spa, and wherein rotation of the first section relative to the third section positions the first section above the third section.
  • Claim: 16. The hard spa cover of claim 15, wherein the second section comprises tracks along opposite ends of the second section, wherein the third section engages the tracks and is configured to move along the tracks to slide the third section and the first section onto the second section.
  • Claim: 17. The hard spa cover of claim 16, wherein movement of the third section along the tracks toward the second section disengages the third portion of the seal from the top surface and lifts the third section up and over the second section.
  • Claim: 18. The hard spa cover of claim 14, wherein the storage rails are configured to rotate relative to the second section from a vertical position to a horizontal position, and wherein rotation of the storage rails from the vertical position to the horizontal position lifts one side of the second section and disengages the second portion of the seal from the top surface of the spa.
  • Claim: 19. The hard spa cover of claim 18, wherein rotation of the storage rails from the vertical position to the horizontal position engages the storage rails with guides on the second section, and wherein the guides constrain movement of the second section along the storage rails to movement that is parallel to the storage rails.
  • Claim: 20. The hard spa cover of claim 18, wherein movement away from the spa of the second section along the storage rails positions the first section, the second section, and the third section onto the cover storage rack.
