Just purchased a Bullfrog A7

dporter2. In what city did you purchase your 2015 Bullfrog A7 @ $9,950 ? The best price I have been quoted at a Austin, TX dealer is $10,881. I am visiting the dealer Wednesday and doing the wet test.

dporter22:
$10,800 is right around the lowest price I've seen on various forums.  A few months ago they had them at Costco for even less, but I was still doing research at the time and didn't know I would choose a Bullfrog.

I think I was able to get mine for a little less because it's near the end of the month, they had a sale, and they were able to offer a military discount.

I'd be interested to know what you think after your wet test.  The only negatives I found with the A7 were that the footwell is not very deep, which for a taller person makes it less comfortable, and the two side seats are more upright than I would prefer.

dporter22:
Dealer advised that circulation pumps reduce the amount of filtration during the main pump filtration cycle, and that the lifespan of the ozone generator is decreased when it is on continuously with the circulation pump.  Not sure if this is true with any other brands, but I decided not to have one installed on my Bullfrog based on his advice.

I relaid my patio blocks for a 3/4" drop for where the hot tub was going to go. That is over 92". I have a covana as well and it didn't affect anything so far, just the water line is over the lights on one end and under the lights at the other. It has to shed water when it rains or else I would have had a real mess if it was perfectly flat.

Basically what my installer told me was you don't want to put a bunch of constant water weight on one end of the tub for no reason as it may stress the frame and shell. If   it was 3 or 4", probably not good but my installer had no issue with even up to an inch of drop over 92".

Congrats on your purchase!  You picked a good one  8)

I would agree with the post above that said 1" isn't too bad, but 2" may be.  You will definitely notice it at the water line.  The spa level-r is a option.  Another is to build a box and fill it with crushed rock.  You can level the rock pretty easy.  I've also seen people just build a platform barely off the ground, like a mini-deck.

Good luck!
