How about a spray bottle with a dilute solution of water and bleach? Great for grout too! For me, bleach is a wonder product when it comes to sanitizing and leaving a smell of clean. DO NOT mix it with other cleaning products, especially those for the bathrooms, as it sometimes creates HCl acid fumes.Searching for products to clean and sanitize a jacuzzi bath tub?
Smarty- you were absolutely right! I did mis-read the question and thought the asker was referring to a hot tub. Good for you for thoroughly reading the question. Your ten points were well deserved!!!

Searching for products to clean and sanitize a jacuzzi bath tub?
We use the peroxide based sanitizers - BaquaSpa or SpaGuard. Every three months we drain and clean the spa with a bleach, then rinse with a restaurant grade sanitizer. Fully rinse again, and refill. Re-set the sanitizer, pH, and mineral levels, and we're ready to tub.
In between cleanings, I like to add a few drops of Tea Tree oil to the tub. We like the smell, and it is a good anti-bacterial, fungal and viral agent.
'B.T.F. Iodophor Sanitizer' is the brand of restaurant grade sanitizer I mentioned. It is an iodine based sanitizer, so DO NOT leave it on long, or it will stain the tub.
Forget the chemicals. Get a hand held steam cleaner and take your time using it. You can burn youself with live steam. It wil cost between 40 and a hundred dollars depending on which one you get. But it will clean almost anything if used properly. Disinfection is just a small part of it's work.
Foget the bleach. There are better products available throught your local janitorial supplier. They will have hospital grade disinfectants that will kill everything (things bleach can't touch). Call to see which brands they have and take their advice, they are the experts. One brand that is really great is Hillyard and one of their best products is called QT. I know these things because I work for a janitorial supplier.
