Looking After Your Jacuzzi

When you've got your very own Jacuzzi, it can be easy to forget in the middle of all the relaxation and gentle bubbles that you need to dedicate a bit of time to maintaining your tub. Our guide gives you a quick how to' on Jacuzzi maintenance. Firstly, make sure you have the right equipment. Jacuzzi surface cleaner, filter solution, bleach and a soft sponge are the most important things, helping you to keep the tub surface, filter and plumbing in great condition.

The most obvious place to start your cleaning is the external surface of the Jacuzzi. These are easy to wipe down with a specialist surface cleaner, which you can get from spa supply stores. Drain the Jacuzzi of water before applying the cleaner to all the surfaces and letting it soak so the build up of grime dissolves. Then use a soft cloth or sponge to wipe of the excess cleaner. Cotton buds are useful for reaching the tricky bits, and remember to take extra care around the jets.

You also need to keep the inner workings of your Jacuzzi in good shape. Manufacturers normally recommend that you clean the circulation system every 3 months. To do this, fill the Jacuzzi with warm water and add a couple of teaspoonfuls of detergent along with half a cup of bleach. Turn the Jacuzzi on for a couple of minutes and make sure the water from the jets is clear. Drain the tub, refill with cold water and leave it for 5 minutes before draining again to rinse it clean.

Also important is to clean your filter at least once a month to keep it working efficiently, or else grime will build up and excess pressure will be put on the pump. Remove the filter and spray it with a garden hose to remove the biggest lumps of dirt. Then, mix a solution of water and special filter cleaner. Soak the filter in it for the recommended amount of time. Then remove the filter from the solution and rinse it in fresh water before replacing it in the Jacuzzi.

It's vital that you regularly maintain your Jacuzzi because, if you don't, scum, dirt, skin cells and oils build up on the surface of the tub as well as the internal mechanical parts. This causes scales to form, which in turn is an ideal breeding ground for bacteria, which contaminates the water. Contaminated water can cause infections, so make sure you keep your Jacuzzi in tip top shape to ensure a continued blissful home spa experience.
