How to Maintain Your Bathtub The Right Way
Unlike hot tubs, freestanding bathtubs are located indoors and require regular maintenance to keep them clean and in good condition.

Rinse After Each Use
After each use, give your bathtub a quick rinse with plain water to remove any soap residue or dirt. This simple step will help prevent buildup and keep your bathtub clean in the long run.

Spray With a Gentle Cleanser Weekly
On a weekly basis, spray your bathtub with a gentle cleanser. Ensure you get water on all of the bathtub’s exposed surfaces and use a soft cloth or sponge to wipe away any dirt or stains. Many stores offer generic versions of gentle cleansers at a lower price.

Flush out the Jets on a Monthly Basis
If your bathtub has jets, it is recommended to flush them out on a monthly basis. Fill the tub with warm water and add a cup of white vinegar. Run the jets for about 15 minutes, making sure the water level is at least a few inches above the jets. This will help remove any buildup or debris inside the jets.

Scrub the Entire Tub Each Month
Once a month, give your bathtub a thorough scrub using a mixture of liquid Castile soap and hydrogen peroxide or cornstarch. Apply the mixture to the tub surface and scrub with a soft cloth or sponge. Pay special attention to any stains or marks and use gentle circular motions to remove them. Rinse the tub with water and repeat as necessary.

Remove Stains as Necessary to Keep Your Tub Clean
If you notice any stubborn stains on your bathtub, there are several methods you can try to remove them. One option is to create a paste using baking soda and water, apply it to the stain, and let it sit for a few minutes before scrubbing it off. Another option is to use a commercial stain remover specifically designed for bathtubs. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any cleaning products.

Prepare the installation conditions

  • The design and location of inlet and outlet holes are the key points of installation engineering.
  • The independent bathtub inlet faucet can be divided into floor mounted bathtub faucets and wall outlet faucets, which can be selected according to the condition of your own bathroom.
  • As for the drainage method, it is similar to a washing machine, which uses hoses to discharge sewage, so it has a certain degree of design flexibility. However,
  • It should be noted that the drainage holes on the ground should not be too close to the wall, It is best to be about 35 centimeters away from the wall, and at least 20 centimeters or be covered by a bathtub to be more safe.

Preparing for Installation

  1. Clean the floor and make sure that it is level.

  2. Place the freestanding bathtub in the exact position desired. Once set, trace the outline of the bathtub with a pencil or any erasable marking pen. (Figure 1)

  3. Determine the location of the drain pipe, on the floor by taking measurements of the drain location underneath the unit. Cut a hole into the subfloor large enough to accommodate the plumbing trap. Ensure the space is free of pipes, floor joists, heating ducts and electrical wires.(Figure 2) The use of a SMARTPAN is highly recommended for easy install.

  4. Using a blanket, cardboard, or other clean protective surface, turn the unit on its side so that the unit is properly supported during drain installation. Setting and Installing the bathtub

How To Maintain Your Bathtub The Right Way

  • easy to maintain your bathtub but since bathtubs are unlike hot tubs in that they’re located indoors and don’t need chemical purification systems, it can be easy to forget that bathtubs need some occasional TLC, too.
  • Here, we’ll show you how to properly maintain your bath- tub so you can enjoy countless relaxing soaks for years to come.
  • To take care of your bathtub, make sure to:
    • Give it a quick rinse after each use.
    • Spray it down with a gentle cleanser each week. Flush out and clean its jets every month or so. Scrub the entire tub each month. Remove stains as necessary.
    • Let’s take a closer look at each of these steps so you can learn how to keep your bathtub squeaky clean and smelling fresh.

Rinse After Each Use

  • Although it may seem like you’re cleaning your bathtub every time you use it, any soap, oils or bubble bath can contribute to the nasty build-up of scum and slime in the long run.
  • To avoid this, simply take a minute after each use to rinse your bathtub with plain old water. It only takes seconds to do, but it can save you a lot of cleaning time in the future.
  • If your bathtub is located underneath a shower, simply run the shower for a few seconds. Or, if your bathtub is separate from your shower, run the faucet and splash the water around with your hands, or use a spray bottle filled with tap water.
  • No matter which rinsing method you choose, be sure to get water on all of the bathtub’s exposed surfaces and that will help maintain your bathtub for a long time.

Spray With a Gentle Cleanser Weekly

  • Another equally easy measure you can take to avoid more cleaning, in the long run, is giving your bathtub a spray of gentle cleanser on a weekly basis.
  • Many major cleaning brands sell spray-on bathtub cleansers designed for frequent use, and most grocery stores offer a generic version at a lower price.
  • However, you can make your own, more natural cleanser by simply filling a spray bottle with a mixture of water and white vinegar. Once you’ve sprayed down your tub, you can either rinse off the vinegar right away or let it sit for a few minutes for a more thorough cleanse.
  • If you see any signs of soap scum, mildew or other unwanted buildups, simply use a scrubbing brush to target problem areas before you rinse the cleanser away – a long-handled scrubbing brush can make this step even more effortless.

Flush out the Jets on a Monthly Basis

  • If you have a whirlpool tub or air bath, it’s important that you regularly flush out and clean its jets to maintain your bathtub.
  • With an air bath, this process is easy: Just turn on the jets when the bath is empty, or use your bath’s built-in drying cycle. Either way, doing so will dry and flush out your tub’s jets in a matter of minutes.
  • With a whirlpool tub, cleaning is a bit more involved:
    • First, you’ll need to fill the tub until the water is a few inches above the jets.
    • At this point, you may add a couple of cups of vinegar to the water, or a cleaning product like bleach or dish- washing detergent (refer to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure this won’t damage your tub).
    • Then, turn off the air induction valves and turn on the jets. After about 15 minutes, drain the tub and repeat. Although flushing a whirlpool tub’s jets is undeniably a chore, it’s worth it to prevent chunks of debris and mold from ruining an otherwise relaxing bath.
  • Remember, if you use your jetted tub frequently (i.e., several times per week), you’ll have to flush out its jets more frequently, too.

Scrub the Entire Tub Each Month

  • About every month (or every couple of weeks if you’re a frequent bather), you’ll need to use some good old-fashioned elbow grease to give your bathtub a thorough scrub.
  • You can purchase a commercial bathtub scrubbing solution, or you can make your own.
  • Simply mix about a cup of baking soda with two three tablespoons each of liquid Castile soap and hydrogen peroxide. For extra scrubbing power, add a half cup of salt or cornstarch.
  • Then, use a washcloth or scrubbing brush to work your chosen scrubbing solution into all your bathtub’s surfaces, paying extra attention to its grout, drain, faucet and jet covers.
  • You’ll be left with a sparkling tub that’s completely free from any mold, mildew, scum or mineral buildup.

Remove Stains as Necessary to Keep Your Tub Clean

  • Even with regular cleaning and maintenance, your bath- tub may start to develop some unsightly stains and discoloration over time.
  • To fight stains the natural way, simply spray down the stain with a water-vinegar mixture (or undiluted vinegar if the stain is particularly severe), then sprinkle baking soda on top.
  • Once the area has foamed for a few minutes, use a wash- cloth or scrubbing brush to work the mixture into a paste. Allow the paste to sit for about 15 minutes, wash it away with water and repeat as necessary.
  • Alternatively, you can purchase a commercial stain remover. To use it, just follow the instructions on the packaging.
  • While almost everyone dislikes cleaning their bathtub, performing proper maintenance can reduce overall cleaning time in the long-run and help your bathtub stay spotless and beautiful for many years to come.
