Bullfrog’s Patented Technology
Bullfrog Spas have patented technology that is recognized world-wide
for the innovation in the pool and spa industry. The benefits of
this patented system include: only jets that are truly customizable
and upgradeable, creating the most energy efficient spa, the only
leak-proof spa design, and a system that runs all the jets at the
same time with optimum pressure.
The JetPak System
- JetPaks are removable spa seats, each equipped with an individual
array of jets. JetPaks allow most of the plumbing and jets to
be positioned within the spa bathing area, below the water line.
The reduction in plumbing reduces water friction through the
pipes, enabling a more powerful spa (PowerPlus™). Maintaining
the plumbing inside the spa traps heat energy creating the industry’s
most energy efficient spa (EnergySave™). Because there are zero
holes drilled into the seatbacks, Bullfrog spas are virtually
leak-proof (LeakGuard™).
- JetPak technology makes Bullfrog the only spa in the world
that is completely customizable and upgradeable. Because of
Bullfrog´s modular jetting system, and JetPak varieties, customers
can create a unique hydrotherapeutic experience based on individual
massage needs. Bullfrog continues to develop JetPak models with
varying massage capabilities which enable users to have the
latest technology and a spa that is never obsolete.
PowerPlus
- Every spa in the world uses long networks of pipe to carry
water from the pumps to the jets. Except one brand! Bullfrog
threw away all traditional plumbing designs and using the JetPak
System, eliminated up to 90% of pipe used.
- Traditional spas are built with hundreds of glue joints,
long networks of pipe, and dozens of pipe connections buried
in foam insulation, all of which restrict water pressure and
flow. Bullfrog reduces 90% of pipe and pipe fittings, thus reducing
the number of pipe connections in the plumbing system. Less
plumbing results in less friction being applied to anything
traveling through the pipe, whether it´s air or water. With
90 percent less plumbing, water power is far greater, which
results in a spa that can run more jets per horsepower.
- Due to the amount of plumbing in most conventional spas,
diverter valves are needed to shut down half of the spa, in
order to give the necessary jet pressure to the other half.
This is a huge inconvenience. Bullfrog Spas have no diverter
valves! The unique PowerPlus plumbing system runs all jets in
all seats at maximum jet power, all the time. No more robbing
jet power from your neighbors!
EnergySave
- The JetPak System creates the most energy efficient line
of spas on the market. The greatest factor to determine energy
savings is to explore how well a spa can retain the heat it
generates. By using 100% closed-cell, full-foam insulation,
Bullfrog ensures maximum protection against heat loss. Many
high-end spas may boast this feature; however, Bullfrog goes
one step further. It recycles the heat that traditional spas
lose.
- In a conventional spa, water is heated and travels to the
spa through many feet of plumbing. Along its journey, the hot
water loses heat which dissipates under the spa and is lost
- even in full-foam spas!
- BBullfrog is different. Up to 90% of the plumbing is on
the JetPak, submerged inside the spa - in hot water. This means
any heat escaping through the pipe is transferred into the spa
water. This process heats the spa and recycles energy. Such
brilliant engineering will be truly appreciated when the monthly
power bills arrive!
LeakGuard
- LeakGuard equates to security. Holes are drilled in removable
JetPaks, not in the spa shell. With zero holes drilled into
the seatbacks, Bullfrog spas reduce the potential for leaks
and are virtually leak-proof.
- In conventional spas, jet and pipe fittings are buried in
foam-filled spa walls, making access to the plumbing difficult
and often impossible. Bullfrog´s exclusive LeakGuard design
provides the unmatched security of JetPak plumbing contained
within the spa. Any leak in this system is contained, and therefore
will never be a problem. If service is ever needed, all JetPak
fittings and piping are easy to access. No other spa design
offers this much peace of mind.
