I bought a a8l this year from a dealer and it started leaking 2 weeks after having it. The dealer said he could either take it into the shop to repair it or give us a refund. We said okay on the refund. We still liked the tub and purchased another a8l from a different dealer. This time we decided to add the Wellspring Circulation Pump. On the first spa the water stayed really clean and after reading on Bullfrogs website that the WellSpring circulation pump did an even better job I thought hey why not have even cleaner, clearer water and added that. Well we have the new tub now but it seems as if the Circulation Pump doesn't work better as advertised. Its advertised to circulate more water faster and clean faster but it doesn't. I was also told the WellSpring Circ Pump is bigger but its not. Does anyone know anything about this circulation pump and maybe if there are some options or such that I'm not programming right on the hottub? Thanks.

I believe the circulation pump is programmable. For best results, 24 hour circulation with a good ozone generator.

And I would add 2-20 minute cycles with the jet pumps.

For some reason the default is 2 hours, twice per day. You need to program it to run 24 hours for the right results.
Also, I think you misread about the size. The Bullfrog circ pump is bigger than most companies dedicated circ pumps at 39 gpm. It is not bigger than the jet pump which is the default filtration pump. That's part of why you want it though because it's smaller and more efficient.
