Jacuzzi Tub and Shower Combo Maintenance Tips

Tub and shower combinations have long been one of the most popular bathroom fixtures in modern homes. They offer the opportunity to take either a relaxing bath or a quick shower depending on one’s mood and the amount of time available, making them the best of both worlds when it comes to the bathing experience. But for those who have never had one before, it’s common to worry about the potential inconvenience of having both shower and bath components that need regular care and maintenance. This article from Jacuzzi Bath Remodel contains some Jacuzzi® tub and shower combo maintenance tips that should set your mind at ease.

The Basics of a Jacuzzi® Tub-Shower Combo

A tub-shower combo is a bathtub with the addition of a showerhead. Jacuzzi® bathtubs come in many styles with several different hydrotherapy options to refresh and rejuvenate the bather after a long day. Similarly, Jacuzzi® showerheads come in fixed or handheld configurations and offer a variety of different experiences, from relaxing rainfall effects to high-pressure massage to soothe sore muscles.

One of the biggest benefits of getting your bathtub/shower combo from Jacuzzi Bath Remodel is that the Jacuzzi® products we install are made from long-lasting, stain-resistant materials that won’t chip, crack, warp, or rot under normal use. This way, you can enjoy them for many years and spend less time struggling with maintenance.

Tips for Maintaining Your Tub and Shower Combo

Because a tub-shower combo consists of both shower and bath components, it’s important to pay attention to all parts when it comes to maintenance. However, that doesn’t mean you have to spend several hours every week scrubbing and bleaching. By keeping in mind these tips, you can effectively extend the life of your Jacuzzi® bathtub-shower combo with minimal effort:

• Remove hair and other debris and give your tub a quick rinse after each use to prevent permanent stains and a clogged drain.
• Don’t use products that may stain, such as bath bombs or shampoo with dye.
• Make sure heavy items such as shampoo bottles are well secured so that they won’t fall into the bathtub and fracture the acrylic.
• Use a toothbrush to remove hard water and limescale from the handles and showerhead to keep them functioning at their best.
• Don’t use abrasive materials and overly harsh cleaning chemicals that may damage the shine and antimicrobial surface of your bathtub.

If your Jacuzzi® bathtub has jets, you’ll want to flush them out every so often and be especially careful about using bath oils or salts while you bathe. For the best results, you should only use products that have been formulated for use in jetted tubs.
