Why was the Ahh-Some Whirlpool Jetted Tub Bio Cleaner Developed
So that you could take a jetted bath without the worry of bacteria, mold and algae floating in the tub with you. It was also created for jetted tubs because it worked so well in keeping pools and hot tubs clean, clear and germ free.
Why do I need to clean my jetted tub weekly?
Have you ever noticed your toilet bowl after 7 days of not cleaning it? Mold, algae bacteria start to grow in the water and underneath the bowl lip. The same occurs in the dark jetted tub piping, where water lies, creating a fantastic growing environment for mold, algae and bacteria. As the housing starts to development in the pipes, the grease, oils, dirt and grime from our bodies while bathing adhere to the detritus (gunk). If you clean the jetted tub weekly with the Ahh-Some Jetted Tub Bio Cleaner, two things occur; one, the pipes stay clean and water flow is not impeded; two, there is no time for the mold and algae to grow. Harmful bacteria takes about 10 days to start grow.
Why do I need to use the 24 hour cleaning routine?
Most jetted tub owners that seek out the Ahh-Some Jetted Tub Bio Cleaner have a major problem on their hands already. Their jetted tub internal piping and jet cleaning has been neglected for some time or they have used the bleach and Cascade routine over the years. You need to clean walls of the piping, getting rid of the detritus (gunk), the housing for the bacteria, oils, grease, mold, and skin from bathing. The 24 hr jetted tub cleaning routine lets 1 teaspoon of the concentrated bio cleaner gel work hard, scraping the interior pipe walls, continuing to break down the detritus while the water sits in the pipes. Every few hours, a few layers of the the gunk get loosened and deposited on the tub facing when the jets are run. At the end of the 24 hrs the internal pipe walls have been scraped clean and you can enjoy a clean bacteria free bath. We do not like to waste the bio cleaner nor your money.
What’s wrong with using bleach as a sanitizer?
Nothing! Bleach is a great sanitizer, but that is all that it does, sanitize, especially with the small amount that is recommended to use for cleaning jetted tubs (1 cup). When bleach destroys the bacteria, mold and algae, it leaves the detritus behind for the grease, oils, skin to cling to and new mold, bacteria and algae a place to grow faster in shorter period of time. The Ahh-Some Bio Cleaner not only destroys bacteria, mold and algae, but also cleans the detritus out of the piping leaving nothing for new growth to adhere to and it also inhibits new growth for a few days after cleaning.
I don’t use the jets, is it safe from bacteria?
Absolutely NOT! When you take bath in a jetted tub, water enters into the jet tubing and stays there when you empty the tub. Since the water is idle when not using the jets, it just promotes mold, bacteria and algae at a faster rate. The grease, oils, skin and dirt also just fall to the bottom of the pipes creating a thicker detritus layer. By cleaning the jetted tub with the Ahh-Some Jetted Tub Bio Cleaner weekly, you have peace of mind that you are bacteria free and that there is no accumulated buildup of gunk occurring.
Do I need to rinse the jetted tub after I use the Ahh-Some Bio Cleaner?
NO! Our bio cleaner is “green”. You do not have to rinse the jetted tub out with fresh water after you clean it out with the Ahh-Some Bio Cleaner. The water left in the tub piping has bio cleaner in it to continue to inhibit bacteria, mold and algae growth. We do not want you wasting any more water than absolutely necessary. We recommended cleaning your jetted tub with the same water you just bathed in, adding a pinch (1/3 teaspoon) to the water before emptying it. make sure you drain water to the jet levels first.
Why is dish washing detergent recommended by jetted tub manufacturers?
Dish washing detergent has a number of cleaning properties that reduce foaming while cleaning. Most of these detergents have sanitizing agents in them as well. The problem that occurs when cleaning your jetted tub with dish washing detergent (gel or powder) is that it does not clean out the detritus buildup but creates a film over it. The theory is that the coating will prevent flaking from occurring, misleading you into believing that the jetted tub pipes are clean. Whirlpool and Jacuzzi sell a powder product that emulates dish washing detergents. Waste of money.
Why is the Ahh-Some bio cleaner unique to cleaning jetted tubs?
For one, the Ahh-Some Bio Cleaner is the only bio cleaner on the market today cleaning jetted tub piping. The ecological proprietary chemistry works far superior than its competition. The scraping action of the bio cleaning and its aggressiveness in attracting and removing grease, oils, skins, mineral deposits and other scum and accomplishing this with very little product and cost are the driving factors to the Ahh-Some Bio Cleaner’s success. It takes a year to use 6oz of the concentrated bio cleaning gel, unlike where the “others” get you pouring your money down the drain.
I have green gunk coming out on the tub during weekly cleanings.
Green is GOOD. When you start seeing green “ring around the tub” during weekly cleaning, it means that your pipes are without detritus and that algae is growing fresh in your pipes. When you see green, there is very little or no bacteria or mold buildup in your piping. You have a very clean and “green” jetted tub for relaxation.
Do I need to clean a air jetted tub?
To make this simple, there is a separation of air and water, normally a flap, when the air jets are turned on the flap lifts to let the air out but keep the water from back washing into the piping. There is a brief period when water has the ability to seep into the air portals. If the water has some of the Ahh-Some Bio Cleaner in it when it seeps in the pipes, then the bio cleaner water will inhibit mold, bacteria and algae growth. You only need a very very very little of the Ahh-Some Jetted Tub Bio Cleaner to clean a jetted air tub.
When do I do the weekly cleaning, before or after my bath?
You do not need clean water with the bio cleaner and it’s best to use the Ahh-Some Jetted Tub Bio Cleaner after you take your last weekly bath, like on a Sunday evening. I like to conserve water consumption. Just add 1/3 teaspoon or less into the used water, drain the water until it is just above the jets, make sure the jets are pointing down, and run the jetted tub for 5 minutes, wipe the ring around the tub. Done.
