13% tax!?!?!?! That's ridiculous.
HK jets in the Marquis are awesome. And you don't have to move jet packs, you can simply move to a different seat. I'm not saying the movable jet packs don't give you another option but I still think it's gimmicky.Does anyone have jet packs sitting in their garage waiting to be used. Or do you just switch around the ones in the tub? How often do you switch them around?

We aren't even the highest tax rate in Canada, it's 15% in Nova Scotia.
Sounds like it is diverted to me. That's what I was trying to get to. I have seen it in person and it IS a diverter and a sales pitch.

I have seen it in person and it IS a diverter and a sales pitch.As I explained, it is not a diverter like on other tubs since increasing the individual power adjustment on a seat does not reduce the power at any other seat. With the Bullfrog design you get full power at every seat without any noticeable decrease at another, which is much different than other tub brands whose diverters actually divert power from some seats to get full power at others. Every seat in a Bullfrog gets full power if you want it.Not sure why this is so hard to understand, or why you think it's not true or a sales gimmick.
Why argue about this at all? If you are interested in a Bullfrog tub, go wet test it and check out how all the valves affect the jets and see if you dig it. If so, consider buying it; if not then look at another brand.
Take a normal spa like a Jacuzzi. 2 pumps, 1 pump runs one side, one runs the other side. Bullfrog is primarily the same.If I hit pump one with the divertor pointed to the middle both seats get equal pressure. If I turn it to the right one seat gets less the other more, turn it all the way to the right and one seat gets none. When the diverter is in the middle you are dividing the pressure between two seats. Technically not full power, right? At least getting as much power as both seats can. On either spa I am not including other jets or foot jets that take flow as well. So take a Bullfrog with 2 pumps, same as the Jacuzzi one pump runs one side the other pump runs the other side. If I close one BF divertor down at the btm, it will send full power to the other seat, so one seat get less. If I open them both up you again divide that pressure between 2 seats. So really both seats are getting as much as the can, but not really full power just as much as that pump can deliver GPM divided by 2. And again not including foot jets or some of the other jets taking flow. I will say with Bullfrog you do not have all the hoses, manifolds 3/4" lines running to 30 jests or 90* elbows a normal spa would have, so I believe you are getting more pressure from the pump without restriction from all the plumbing in a normal spa. When you say each seat gets full power in a way it's right, but its really not. Now when you look at a Artesian platinum class with it's direct flow system and one pump per seat if they still have it, then yes each seat is getting full power or at least as much as it can with plumbing restrictions and what not. In other terms one pump per seat. It actually was/is a really cool system, but I didn't really find in any more powerful than anybody else's system. But it was a great sales pitch like any other spa has. Make any sense? \
