Cleaning and emptying a jacuzzi
Hi all is emptying out and cleaning a jacuzzi a specialised job and what is the reasonable price to get that done?
Expert Trade Answers
"1. Turn Off Power: Before beginning any cleaning or draining procedures, turn off the power to the Jacuzzi at the main breaker panel to prevent accidents.
2. Drain the Water:
Locate the drain valve or plug on your Jacuzzi. This is typically located near the bottom of the tub.
Attach a garden hose to the drain valve to direct the water away from the tub.
Open the drain valve and allow the water to drain completely. Depending on the size of your tub, this may take some time.
3. Clean the Interior:
Once the water has drained, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner to scrub the interior surfaces of the Jacuzzi, including the walls, seats, and jets.
Pay special attention to areas where dirt, grime, and algae may accumulate, such as around the waterline and in the jets.
Use a soft brush or sponge to scrub the surfaces gently, being careful not to scratch or damage the finish.
4. Clean the Filters:
Remove the filter cartridge(s) from the Jacuzzi. Refer to your owner's manual for specific instructions on how to access and remove the filters.
Rinse the filters thoroughly with water to remove any debris, dirt, and oil buildup. For a deeper clean, you can soak the filters in a filter cleaning solution according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Allow the filters to dry completely before reinstalling them in the Jacuzzi.
5. Refill the Jacuzzi:
Close the drain valve once the tub is empty.
Use a garden hose to refill the Jacuzzi with fresh water. Fill the tub to the recommended level indicated in your owner's manual.
If necessary, add any chemicals or water treatments recommended for your Jacuzzi to maintain water balance and sanitation."

"It depends on the size of the jacuzzi and the degree of contamination. It is good to do an inspection to determine also what professional materials to use.

"I would always advise against DIY. Especially disposing of liquids that contain chemicals. I would suggest a professional for this. Good luck!"
