I had mold, some pieces looked black. This did clean my Jett's . I did this twice.

This worked great in my tub. It got a lot of gunk out of the jets. Worked better than I expected.

I think it will. First I would recommend performing a regular cleaning. If you don't know how, here are a couple of sites for standard cleaning techniques: http://www.us.kohler.com/us/Flushing-Your-Whirlpool/content/CNT900255.htm?locale=en_US and http://www.wikihow.com/Clean-a-Jetted-Bathtub If you don't want to use bleach (may damage internal gaskets), use vinegar instead. After you do that, use this product to get rid of the biofilm. I started getting gunk from mine as soon as I started the system.

Clean-up should be similar to silicone caulk, razor and possibly a solvent. The cleaner you apply it the cleaner it will come off.

I just bought this from a local dealer yesterday. He said to use 1/2 bottle for my 250 gallon spa. Here are the directions: DIRECTIONS FOR USE Hot tubs and spas: Use every 3 months or when spa is drained and refilled per the Simple Spa Care Program: 1. Remove filter and clean separately using Filter Clean. 2. Before spa is drained, add 1 bottle of Jet Clean to warm spa water. 3. Turn ON pump and run jets for 15 minutes. (Ensure that filter is not in spa). 4. Turn pump and jets OFF and let sit for 1 hour. 5. Turn pump ON and run jets and blower for 15 minutes. 6. Drain spa, hosing off inside spa walls while draining. 7. Refill spa according to the Simple Spa Care Program. *May need to partially fill spa and drain to help reduce foaming. NOTE: Some residual foaming may occur. If so, use Defoamer to suppress the foam. Jetted Bath Tubs: 1. Pour 8 oz (1/2 bottle) in tub with warm water before draining. 2. Turn jets ON for 15 minutes 3. Drain and rinse tub with clean water.

My hottub is not standard, it is a wooden tub with a submersed wood burning furnace. I added an external swimming pool filter and the Spa Stick does not fit into the filter, so I hang it over the side on a cord and let the water from the filter run over it. This keeps the spa clean for 4 months per mineral sanatizer. You need to add a small amount of chlorine to make the spa stick start to work, I use 2 small 1 inch diameter chlorine tabs for this purpose. I also put 1 ounce of pool shock into the water about every 2 weeks.

I don't have a jacuzzi, but I can't think of any reason the lift would not work. I have a deep soaking type tub, and the only thing that doesn't work are the side flaps. They are easy to remove, just slide off and I took them off. They will not support you without resting on the sides of a tub and they won't reach the sides of mine, the tub is too wide. I don't have any problem with that, however.

Yes it will 'cus thats the tub I put mine in. Wife loves it but only "down side" is that the heater runs anytime the pump runs. Makes the water pretty hot if a person likes to soak with the jets on. Its an easy fix if you do BEFORE the installation of the tub though.

I don't know. I bought one to install with an old Jacuzzi hot tub. My tub's jets don't create enough vacuum to suck in the ozone during normal thermal cycling. I would have had to add an external air pump to force the ozone into the tub's plumbing. My tub does have a high-speed jet mode but that isn't on enough to be useful. I sent this unit back. I may try one of the other models that has a built in pump and brick

I see no reason that you cannot....I do it frequently, as I use the Foot Spa at my hypnotherapy practice in conjunction with other services I offer! :-) I just use a small amount of bleach, to a full spa, turn the heat and jets on high and let it cycle for about 10 - 15 minutes, drain and then rinse with cool water. No problems so far and I really do not expect any!

Whirl Out does do some cleanout of minerals, but I'm not sure exactly what, except that it cleans pretty well. The best product I've found so far is called "Oh Yuk Jetted Tub System Cleaner." It has been taking care of our bacterial iron that had been accumulating in the pipes. It dissolves a lot of it, and WhirlOut does too, but not quite as good. I have found using warm to hot water in both the cleaning and the rinse helps. The problem is, for me, that I'm not sure what harsh chemicals I can use or not use in the jacuzzi tub. If I could use anything, I would pick Iron Out. It might sound funny or silly, but for very small corroded items, Efferdent (for cleaning dentures) does an excellent job. I was looking for something to clean a partial, and one of the reviews for Efferdent was a guy who uses it to clean the minerals, calcium, etc, from his toilet. I tried Efferent in the toilet and it actually did a fairly decent job. With hot water, I think it could have done better. Hope these suggestions help. Ingrid

There is a cleaning fluid that should be used with the machine. Plain water can work but will not be as effective.

I only used it on my snowblower carburetor. It cleans out the gunk and will clean out your fuel line and injector. I would give it a shot since it's a cheap tool to help with the diagnosis. Be aware that it may be something else though.

No, disinfects the water, not material items.I have run a mix of a little bleach and soap through our bath tub that has jets...run for several minutes, will make lots of bubbles...then rinse out with water only a few times seems to clean it out pretty good.

I have a Jacuzzi fiberglass tub, and it works beautifully. It will work on any tub that isn't round.

If the clog is from hard water as in lime and calcium buildup, unscrew the jets and soak then in CRW or Lime Away overnight. The buildup left over will flake off easily. Make sure to thoroughly rinse the jets before reinstalling

I'm not sure if the old stuff I removed from our tubs was silicone, something else, or a mixture since the last time it was caulked someone else did it. As I said in a previous comment to another inquiry, it did seem to work on whatever it was, although in some areas I had to treat it twice. I averaged using one and one-half to two bottles per our standard sized tubs. Hope this helps -- good luck!

It usually does. You can buy extras or reuse them by cleaning them with a bleach or disinfecting / sanitizing formula. It's not like you have to worry about water jets

I used this in my fiberglass one. I applied a lot pressure to it as well and didnt have an issue. ..that being said tho I'd try an area thats not noticeable and apply pressure to make sure before you do the whole tub.
