I am very happy with my Bullfrog hot tub. I am very disappointed in the complete lack of customer service from Bullfrog corporate to even-return-an-inquiry to me, ever. I am very curious if you have gotten responses from Bullfrog when you have either left a voicemail message or when you have...

I have no reason to assume the TF powder does not test exactly the same as the white Taylor powder, but I thought I would ask raise the question due to the different look and texture of the TF brand 870 DPD powder. And also to ask if the experts here use TF brand reagents with full confidence...

I was very surprised to see my TA jump from 50 to 80ppm after I had added 1.2 oz of Dichlor (SpaGuard Chlorinating Concentrate 99% Sod. Dichlor Triaz. Dihydr.) and 15 gals of fresh water (TA 310ppm). The 80 TA reading was 20 mins after Dichlor had been added. I tested TA again 2 hours after...

We are instructed to keep the 'Cover Off' for 5, 10, 15, 20, mins after chemicals are added while the 1-2 pumps are circulating to allow for the initial high off gassing period. Is it just Chlorine and Dichlor that this is important for (w/ a chlorine tub) to lessen gas damage to the underside...

I am curious what makes the Taylor SpeedStir 9265 $41.99 more popular on this site than say the less expensive, variable speed INTLLAB Magnetic Stirrer Stainless Steel Magnetic Mixer. Max Stirring Capacity: 3000ml $29.80 ? The same INTLLAB MS-500 Magnetic Stirrer with 7 piece variable size stir...

1)Are your 2023 A Series Bullfrog Branded covers short on the corners so that the skirt is spread at the corner, exposing the acrylic the same way as my posted pictures? 2)** I just noticed that the X6L has the same 7’4” x 6’8” dimensions, and the pics on the Bullfrog website show that the...

When I have been adding small amounts of Chlorine (1-3oz) or 31.45 % Muriatic acid (< 1oz), I have been adding them into a bucket of ≈2 gallons of hot tub water, mixing, then pouring slowly over jets on low. Is this overly cautious? Is it fine to just slowly pour these chemicals directly from...

My water was nice and balanced. I screwed it up by making a few rookie mistakes in adding Borax. Oye! 1) I read that Borax stabilizes pH, but I did not know that it pretty much LOCKS it at the level it is when Borax is added. 2) This morning my pH was at .6 so I added .4 oz Dichlor at 11:40am...

I am following the 11/14/2008 Nitro sticky How do I use Chlorine in my Spa (or pool)? Caveat ::: Does CYA dissipate from a water sample over a few hours in an (almost) enclosed container at room temp? I had the ≈ 4 oz water sample taken a few hours before, in a clear 8 oz squirt condiment...

I am looking to shorten the time it takes to lower my Hot Tub's TA from 370 to 50–70 ppm, since I need to do so many cycles when I refill the tub. I have a Bullfrog A6L (330 gals.) When cycling to lower new water refill from 370 TA, how long do I need to wait after adding muriatic acid (to...

@Ahhsomeguy , Here's my question, then below is my tub's info. I did not use Aqua Clarity to do my purge, I used the AHHsome! packet. But today, finally mixing up my Aqua Clarity to give my tub it's first 'Weekly' maintenance dose of Aqua Clarity, I THOUGHT I read the dose for doing a purge as...

One thing that seems strange is that my water level on my brand new 2023 Bullfrog A6L (310 gals.) hot tub has been dropping an average of 16.5 gallons per week (2 1/3 gals/ day) in the 23 days since I turned the heater on to heat for use after the water balancing process on 2/8/24. When I...

[Edit: My wife told me her Dr. said she had a skin ‘sensitivity’ to Bromine, not an ‘allergic reaction’. I have changed my references to ‘allergy/allergic’ to ‘skin sensitivity’. The link says that ‘skin sensitivity’ (irritant contact dermatitis) shows a reaction, rash, in 1–2 hours (which she...

My new 2023 A6L Select's Neck'PLUS' JetPak, which is new for 2023, seems to be a problem (for ref.:2013-2022 had NeckBlaster & NeckMasseuse). NeckEASE is the other Neck JetPak for 2023 model year. Pictures attached.- When I removed the headrest covers to purge the hot tub, I noticed that the...

I just got my Bullfrog A6L Select tub filled and balanced last week. Tons of tiny gnats are draw to the water. I scoop them out with a net frequently. But when I noticed the first signs of foam on the surface when the jets ran, I figured it was time to rinse out the flat Simplicity filter. Boy...

I have been lurking here a few weeks. I just received my new Bullfrog A6L (310 gals.) a week ago, so figured it was time to register. I'm looking forward to learning more as I now am out of the pre-tub research mode and experiencing the water maintenance in action. :eek:) I did an Ahh!some...
