    I went to take a bath yesterday in my nice jacuzzi tub and turned out my jets. I noticed - black stuff (almost looked like carbon) in the water. I took a closer look and it looks like mold from inside the jets. Now I clean my tub often but obviously I missed the cracks where there is this build up - can anyone recommend a good way to clean this up? Maybe run the jets in water with solution of bleach or vinegar?

    Bleach and hot water is the best thing to use, the big thing is not to use any type of bath oil in the jacuzzi. Run the jets for about 10 minutes to thuroughly flush out the system.
