WALK-IN BATHTUB INSTALLATION MANUAL
GENERAL CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
In order to preserve the high gloss acrylic finish of your new bathtub, never
use abrasive cleaners. Do not use steel wool, acetone, window cleaning products,
ammonia, paint thinner or mineral oil on your bathtub or fixtures.
Use of Bath Salts
Salts like Epsom Salts can be used in the bathtub. They will not damage the pump or the
blower. When adding Epsom salts, please ensure they are fully dissolved before
entering the bathtub otherwise fine scratch marks could appear on the acrylic.
We do not recommend the use of ‘Bath Bombs’ and we have found these can damage
the acrylic surface.
Bubble Baths and Aromatherapy Oils
Both of these products can be used in your bath, but take care when using bubble baths
as they can build up greatly when the jets are running.
Cleaning your Bathtub
Clean and rinse your bathtub after each use. A hot, damp soft sponge with a very mild
cleaner like Simple Green will remove most marks from you tub. For more stubborn
stains, we recommend the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.
Disinfection the Tub and Pipes
If your tub is fitted with Ozone sanitizing, there should be no requirement for further
sanitizing. Without Ozone, we would recommend every second month filling the tub
with lukewarm water to a height of 3 inches above the highest jet. Add a cup of bleach
to the water and run the jets for 5 minutes. Allow the water to sit for a further 5
minutes before emptying. Re-fill to the same height with fresh water and run the jets
again for five minutes before emptying the tub.
