The invention claimed is: 1. A cover assembly for use with an in-floor fitting of the type having an interior compartment that is accessible through an opening in the surface of the floor, the cover assembly comprising: a frame overlying the fitting and including a passage that provides access to the fitting; a lid pivotally secured to said frame and covering said passage, said lid being configured to pivot between a closed position at which said passage is closed, and an open position, in which said passage is open; at least one egress door pivotally secured to said lid, said at least one egress door being configured to pivot relative to said lid between an open door position and a closed door position; and a sealing membrane disposed on one side of said lid and said at least one egress door, said sealing membrane providing a moisture-tight seal when said lid and said at least one egress door are in said closed lid and closed door positions, respectively. 2. The cover assembly of claim 1, further comprising a gasket positioned over said frame, said gasket being sandwiched between said frame and said sealing membrane when said lid and said at least one egress door are in said closed lid and closed door positions, respectively. 3. The cover assembly of claim 1, further comprising a latch member having an engaging portion operatively connected to a clasp that secures said lid in said closed lid position with respect to said frame. 4. The cover assembly of claim 1, wherein said at least one egress door is pivotally secured to said lid through at least one hinge. 5. The cover assembly of claim 2, wherein said lid is in the closed position and said at least one egress door is in the open door position, wherein said sealing membrane folds under said lid, and wherein an outer perimeter of said sealing membrane sealingly engages said gasket. 6. A cover assembly adapted to be mounted over an in-floor fitting, comprising: a lid movably secured over the in-floor fitting; an egress door movably secured to said lid; a sealing membrane bonded to an underside of said lid and said egress door; and a gasket positioned over the in-floor fitting, said gasket sealingly mating with said sealing membrane when said lid and said egress door are closed over said passage. 7. The cover assembly of claim 6, further comprising a latch member having an engaging portion operatively connected to a clasp that secures said lid in a closed lid position. 8. The cover assembly of claim 6, wherein said egress door is pivotally secured to said lid through a hinge. 9. The cover assembly of claim 6, wherein said egress door is slidably secured to said lid. 10. The cover assembly of claim 6, further comprising at least one additional egress door. 11. The cover assembly of claim 6, wherein said sealing membrane is formed of one of rubber, foam, and an elastomeric material. 12. A cover assembly adapted to be mounted over an in-floor fitting formed within a floor, comprising: a frame configured to be secured to one of the floor and an upper surface of the in-floor fitting, said frame having a passage defined therethrough and configured to allow access into the in-floor fitting; a lid pivotally secured to said frame and positioned over said passage; an egress door movably secured to said lid, said egress door opening to provide access through said passage; a sealing membrane bonded to an underside of said lid and said egress door, said sealing membrane configured to protect the in-floor fitting from moisture infiltration when said lid and egress door are closed; and a gasket positioned over said frame, said gasket being disposed between said frame and said sealing membrane when said lid and said egress door are closed over said passage, said sealing membrane and said gasket forming a moisture-tight interface therebetween when said lid and said egress door are closed. 13. The cover assembly of claim 12, further comprising a latch member having an engaging portion operatively connected to a clasp that secures said lid in a closed lid position with respect to said frame. 14. The cover assembly of claim 12, wherein said egress door is pivotally secured to said lid through a hinge. 15. The cover assembly of claim 12, wherein said egress door is slidably secured to said lid. 16. The cover assembly of claim 12, further comprising at least one additional egress door. 17. The cover assembly of claim 12, wherein said sealing membrane is composed of one of rubber, foam, and an elastomeric material. 18. The cover assembly of claim 12, wherein said lid is in a closed position and said egress door is in an open door position, wherein said sealing membrane folds under said lid, and wherein an outer perimeter of said sealing membrane sealingly engages said gasket, said sealing membrane providing a moisture-tight seal when said lid and said egress door are closed.
