Bullfrog International was established in 1996 by David Ludlow. Working for his father´s pool and hot tub business as a young man, Ludlow was, in part, responsible for sales and in turn servicing clients´ leaky hot tubs. After attending a pool and spa trade show in Las Vegas in 1989, Ludlow knew he could design a hot tub that could more effectively protect against leaks than the ones featured at the tradeshow. Knowing leaks occurred inside the spa shell where hundreds of feet of plumbing intertwined, Ludlow decided the best way to prevent a leak was to minimize the plumbing underneath the spa shell and place the plumbing inside the water, where if it did leak, it would actually be contained inside the spa and not hinder the spa’s functionality.

Ludlow’s main challenge was designing a spa that reduced the amount of plumbing while increasing jet power and efficiency. Ludlow developed a technology which he coined the JetPak System™.
