Espree™ Bathtub Series

Purging the Whirlpool System

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.

Bathtub Additives

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.

Maintenance

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.

Surface Repair

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.

Suction Cover/Strainer Maintenance

Clean the suction cover/strainer of hair and debris when necessary.

1Remove the center screw and detach the suction cover.

2Clean the cover by backflushing debris from the holes.

3Replace 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.
