I think they look great on the floor, but not sure exactly how bright that will be at night in the Platinum tub.

At first we were running all BF circ pumps 24/7. We did start noticing a lot of issues, primarily in the summer. (We are in AZ.) Summer is pretty darn hot here.Pumps can certainly overheat in those temps. The other thing we noticed is that the filters would clog much faster. We now have them run between 8-12 hours a day, and have all the issues go away, and still have super clean water.FYI, the owners manuals suck for BF. They literally tell you nothing about the "optional" circ pump and how it runs. Essentially, if you have the circ pump, it will filter on the filter cycles (you should have two of them.) If the spa calls for heat, it will click on as well as long as it is in ready mode.The circ pump should never be on your mind in regards to turning it on and off. You should set it once at the very beginning, and just let it do it's job from that point on.
They are both 1 speed if you get the circulation pump. There is one 2-speed pump, and one 1-speed pump if you don't get the circ.It's stupid, because they don't really tell you that.
