  Do not use oil or oil-based bathtub additives.

If you want to use any kind of bathtub additive, use only a small amount of low-foaming powder or crystal substance; 

the whirlpool action intensifies the foaming properties of soaps. 
The use of certain bathtub oils, bubble baths, and bathtub additives may increase the level of accumulations of bathtub 

residue in the whirlpool system and may cause false reading of the water level sensors. If excess accumulations  

persist, you should discontinue use of these products.

Bathtub Additives

To remove accumulations of bathtub residue from the whirlpool system, it is recommended that a whirlpool bathtub be 

cleaned regularly. For best results, however, we recommend that you clean your whirlpool bathtub after each use using, 

Systems Clean™, our exclusive two-part plumbing system cleaner made specifically for whirlpool bathtubs. Systems 

Clean™ is available through an authorized Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath Distributor or by calling us direct at 1-800-288-4002.

Surface Repair

To clean your bathtub, simply use a mild, nonabrasive liquid detergent solution. You can protect and restore the gloss 

to a dulled acrylic surface by applying Meguiar’s #10 Mirror Glaze, a product specifically designed for use on acrylic 

finishes. If Meguiar’s is not available, use a fine grade automotive rubbing compound followed by an application of 

automotive paste wax. 

  Never use abrasive household cleaners on any Jacuzzi Luxury Bath product.

Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish can be removed by lightly sanding with 600-grit wet/dry 

sandpaper. Restore the gloss using Meguiar’s Mirror Glaze or automotive paste wax. Major scratches and gouges 

which penetrate the acrylic surface will require refinishing. Call Jacuzzi Luxury Bath to find a service agent in your area.

Clean the suction cover/strainer of hair and debris when 

necessary.  

1

  Remove the center screw and detach the suction 

cover.

2

  Clean the cover by backflushing debris from the holes.

3

  Replace the suction cover immediately after cleaning. 

  Keep hair a minimum of 6 inches (152 mm) away 

from the suction fitting at all times when the 

whirlpool system is operating. Hair longer than 

shoulder length should be secured close to the 

head, or a bathing cap should be worn. 

  Do not operate the whirlpool system with the 

suction cover/strainer broken, damamged or 

removed! 

 

It is a safety device and must always be in place on 

the suction fitting to minimize the potential hazard 

of hair and body entrapment.
