Title: BullFrog add-ons
Post by: waterpro on August 07, 2020, 05:49:49 pm
Hi everyone, newbie here, but I've learned A LOT in the last week or so about hot tubs!

Having no experience at all with hot tubs, I was originally budgeting $6k for 6-7 person hot tub as that is what I typically saw in the Costco and Home Depot ads. After learning a little more about hot tubs though, I quickly realized that my $6k budget was garbage and I needed to double that if I wanted a quality hot tub that would last more than a year or two.

So with that said, I'm now looking at the BullFrog A7 and A8.  We really like having less plumbing and the fact that all the diverters are in the tub; just less places for the tub to potentially leak in the frame.  We also like the exchangeable jet pack system as well.

With all that said, my budget is now completely blown and I'm curious what add-ons need to be purchased up-front and installed by the factory versus which ones I can add-on at a later date.  We're looking at the following three upgrades:

Thanks everyone for any insight you have!

They told me cloud control can be added later. Not sure about the other two. Call any bullfrog dealer they'd know.

Cloud 2.0 can be easily installed by the customer after delivery if need be, the other (2) items are factory install only

You can add EOS after the fact but not the circulation pump

I haven't done it yet (don't have my tub) but I read that you can buy the Gecko in.touch 2 - and it's the same thing?

About $175



Is in.touch 2 compatible with my spa ?
in.touch 2 is compatible with any spa equipped with Gecko’s Y and X series control systems manufactured in or after 2012. in.touch 2 connects in the Co port of these systems, or through the Co port of connected accessories like the in.mix 300.
