An Effective Technique to Clean Your Whirlpool Tub


Technique to Clean Your Whirlpool Tub

Modern bathrooms are equipped with the most comfortable and most reliable bathing amenities. Home owners almost always make sure that their bathrooms are as cozy as ever so that total relaxation will be facilitated as they clean their bodies.

In the past, bathrooms comprised of showers and tubs. Now, there are more equipment that are being added to make the bathing experience more worthwhile and effective. The whirlpool tub is one of those amenities.

Why do homeowners install whirlpool tubs into their bathrooms? The answer is simple. They want to get a complete cleaning and relaxing experience at the same time while they are bathing.

However, no matter how helpful and cozy the fixture is, it isn't exempt from getting dirty. Here is a simple procedure that will facilitate an effective and convenient cleaning of the equipment.

1. Start with the whirlpool totally drained of any water. Turn off the jets to make sure no air induction is present.

2. Slowly fill the whirlpool tub with hot or lukewarm water. Make sure the water level reaches the top of the jets. As always, you shouldn't pump seats and jets without water because doing so would certainly damage that important part of the whirlpool tub. Warm water is better in cleansing smooth or even rough ceramic surfaces off with dirt.

3. When the whirlpool tub is almost filled with warm water, add about 4 ounces of any brand of household bleaching product. On top of that, add 2 full tablespoons of detergent powder to the warm water.

4. Operate the whirlpool and open the air control fully. Do so for 15 minutes. Doing so would help circulate the detergent solution so that the walls of the tub will be cleaned of any dirt and impurities.

5. Drain the warm water off. After that, refill the whirlpool tub this time with clean and cold tap water. Again, run or operate the jets for about 5 to 10 minutes additional.

6. After the above procedures, quickly drain the cold water. Notice the difference the action did to the surface of the ceramic whirlpool tub.

7. To complete the procedure, wipe dry the tubs surface with a clean and soft piece of cloth. Let it stand for a few hours before using again.

It is imperative to clean the whirlpool tub with the above procedure at least twice every month. That will definitely help prevent growth and accumulation of bacteria and other dirt across the surface of the whirlpool tub. There you have it. Now, you can use the whirlpool tub again anytime you like.
