If the thought of "pathogenic bacteria" in the whirlpool tub you have in your bathroom freaks you out, allow me to direct your attention to that beautiful lake you may have been swimming in, or the river you went kayaking in.
Seriously, you're gonna have a hard stressful life if you flip out every time bacteria might be present in your environment.
And don't even get me started on your toothbrush.
For reals!!! 😅🤣 I replace my toothbrush so often. People think I'm crazy. And I dont keep it in the bathroom either. 🤢
I drop my toothbrush, floss tool, and tongue scraper into a jar of peroxide after use. The first time I dropped my toothbrush in it foamed for an hour. I freaked. Now it does next to nothing.
Word especially the toothbrush its like a toilet at the train station
Oh my gosh. After a whole year of thinking thst I have either an unknown VD or I may have only a few months to live; I have finally found out the reason for the diabolical discharge I have been suffering with. It is vile. I am so relieved. I probably have legonairs fanny. 😂😂 I am never getting in that bath again. Honestly I thought my number was up. What a relief.
@@davoolson my toothbrush stays in the kitchen in a toothbrush case..
Modern tubs have a built in ultra violet light which kills bacteria and an ozone cleaning system to purify the water. After the tub drains an automatic back-flush system dries the plumbing. They also have a non-porous service which prevents soap scum build-up and eliminates the need to scrub the tub. A cup of bleach or vinegar a few times a year is still a good idea but jetted tubs have come a long way in recent years and are safe to use!
How recently have they “come along way”? Some of our tubs may be older than others. Any specific brands that you’re referring to?
I got a walk-in tub because I had a stroke in 2007. I chose a soaker tub. No bells and whistles, just a basic tub because I didn't need the hassle of having to clean the air/water jets. I made a great choice.
Our Jacuzzi uses the two step system where you add a chlorine/bleach type of product after a bath and let the jets circulate it. Then you release all the water. Fill up with cold and then run the jets again and drain the tub. After that the tub is sparkling so I only guess the pipes are as well.
They never mentioned chlorine, that's what swimming pools use lol they have jets, I would do a regular routine once a month and fill tub with hot water and dump a highly concentrated chlorine mixture into the tub and let it run.
What the heck! Why would you make this video and not include a solution??? If your goal was to scare people with jet tubs then you succeeded.
Marisa k oh hell no they didn’t scare me I love my tub. I literally bought my house because of this tub. When I die I don’t need a casket just bury me in my tub. It’s really not that hard to take apart the jets and throughly clean it . Don’t let the germaphobic people ruin it for you.
I just watched a video on how to seal those jets up for good!
Taking a bath at all is not sanitary. You should just shower. And get a shower head filter to fliter the water.
@@davoolson I always take a shower before my bath and sanitary or not I cant live without my relaxing soaks!!!
@@marisak2669 then shower after maybe to get the grossness off when youre done.
My problem with this posting is: 1) It's 11 years old and outdated. 2) It offers no solution to the stated problem.
All you need to do is run 140 degree hot water for a minute or two and you'll kill the germs.
Serious question can you just tear out all the Jets and plumbing to the Jets and seal all the holes to turn it into a regular tub???
You would have to have complete access to every side of the tub, which means removing the tub!
He's not serious. LOL
Good one
Vi Bryan what would be the purpose?! Don’t let them scare you just clean the sucker and run through cleaners it’s fine do it twice and then a long rinse cycle before u use it
The solution would be not to buy any type of piped or air tubs if I am watching their video correctly. Yet this won’t work for me. I love my hot tub.
+222Dargent The solution is to buy the right product. However I appreciate it can be difficult to know who to believe as a customer. We sell and manufacture hot tubs and spa baths. Our Spa Baths for example have a heated O-zone blower, which means the water is being sanitized whilst in use and the drying cycle will also sterilize. System drain wastes take care of any other lurking water. Antibacterial fittings, check valves to stop water getting in the air lines...i could go on.
222Dargent right. I’m not getting rid of my tub!
So how does safe spa address the dirty pipe issue?
The Safe Spa does not use pipes for the jets.
So whats the fix? Tubes and bathing will not go away. In fact my wife wants a jetted tub now, and were expensing a 10K bathroom remodel to get it.
This explains everthing. Hooray I'm not dying. Just keep out of the fancy bath. Wooooo hoooo!
This is a very poor production as it provides no solution. PhD's in my personal and opinion experience are highly educated, but sometimes lack basic common sense solutions, because common sense is never part of their education. What would have been useful here is to find the best cleaning methodologies - with tested results as a comparison. There are body oils, soaps, and residue including skin, dirt and residues from chemicals, which all need to be dealt with. I am sure there are combination products that can mitigate in the cleaning and hygene restoration process. It would have been good to have these included in this clip.
+Gerhard Kutt drop me an email (dominic@spasplash.co.uk) to let me know where you are and i can send cleaning instructions as well as product recommendations.
Spa Splash Products Limited I would love to know how to clean my jacuzzi, as I won’t use it now. Thanks for any info you have.
Robert DeLaplante I suggest u search RUclips for phrases like, “how to clean jacuzzi” and “how to clean whirlpool tub” to find a ton of tips. Or call the manufacturer of ur tub and ask them. Alternatively, the poster above u left their email but it was from 3 yrs ago.
I was considering getting a whirlpool tub but after seeing this video, I’m pretty turned off from the idea, lol. 🥴🤢🤮
SpeedRacer 650 yeah, that’s a great point! Thank you. I guess you just don’t think about these things until seeing a video on it...showing the worst. 😊
After obtaining a jacuzzi type bath many years ago. I really regret it. I think the video is correct. There is one solution. Stay clear of them!
A airspa bath with none return valve and automatic self cleaning cycle so you will not have any water in the pipes
Oh I get it! You’re selling a jet tub! 😂
This comment section is GOLD.
My daughter got sudden horrible rashes/ eczema when we moved last year . Surprise surprise it was a jetted tube . I cleaned it and cleaned and disgusting 🤮 stuff came out , but I realized that not matter how well I cleaned I could never get fully inside cleaned . I stopped giving my daughter baths and the rashes stopped ! Since we have moved and she now gets regular baths in a normal bath tub and she never had the rashes or itchiness on skin again ! I truly believe it was the gunk built up in the pipes of the jetted tub . My ex swore it was clean until I took a toothbrush to one of the jets and out came black gunk and hair and nastiness , he believed me after that but still told me to just run the cleaner through it . Which I did with both whole bottles and it still wouldn’t run clean . But his problem now not mine ! Gross I would never rent buy or bath in a jetted tub ever again in my life ! As I’ve cleaned them and seen that they’re part that you cannot get inside to clean and thus they are nasty disease 🦠 spreaders no thanks 🤢
So you’re saying there is NO SAFE SPA?👀😕Why name your company that if you don’t offer a solution?
So what is your solution?
+pooriashams thin bleach every now and then = problem solved
+pooriashams drop me an e-mail (dominic@spasplash.co.uk) and i can send you information on factory tested cleaning solutions that will not harm the pumps, o-zonator etc that you may have fitted to your tub.
+ArcanePath360 Bleach will kill bacteria but will not flush out bio film build up.
+SpaSplash Ltd Yeah sorry for that comment. After a little more research it seems I was in error to assume that. It works in toilet bowls, but pipework which has the same water sitting for long periods goes stagnant and is resistant to flushing away. This is the reason I looked no further into getting one of these baths. Too much aggro. I would still like the LED lights though.
@@SpasplashCoUkhydro what?
This is a good video even though I gave it a thumbs down. The reason why; I would loved to have seen a worthy resolution of some sort.
Use a regular bath tub.
You didn’t explain why your tubs are safe 🤔
Not to worry, your dishwasher is far worse than this.
Dish washer sanitizes the dishes with a heat cycle afterward.
thanks to covid we now all know the human body with its extraordinary immune system is prepared to handle bacteria.
What was the point of that video not even going over the depth of thouraly cleaning the pipes and so on!!
Well what do you suggest then?! They leave you hanging
use a bit of bromine like a hot tub.. after use .
Well shoot, I need to take a whirlpool and relax. There are cleaning protocols for these tubs that use Clorox and ought to kill most germs. By this same logic, you had better not take a normal bath either, unless you disinfect completely after EVERY use.
Please read my question
@@blueindigo3237 Oooh, I'll get right on it.
You dont scare me
I haven't taken a bath in years. It's so unsanitary and disgusting. I've been showering since I was a kid. Never take a bath.
So the long story is jet tubs are unsafe. Bogus.
Oh dear god, we are all doomed, DOOMED!
Oh the dirt and filth!
Use hydrogen peroxide in the purge system. Duh.
I ve had a crap in a few of them at hotels over the years., use at own risk 😆
Thanks I hate it 🙃😭🤮
