: We have recently purchased a home that is equiped with a jacuzzi tub. It was made of cultured marble and : because of a crack in it we had to have a refurbished. Before this we had never ran the tub. After waiting : to finally use it, we filled it, and turned on the jetts. We were greeted with a ton of "mold", something : possibly organic, coming out of the jets. We thought that just by running the jets with a filled tub on a few : occasions that this would rid the pump (or pipes) of whatever seemed to have settled in there. This is not : the case. Just when we think that the jetts are running clean, we'll fill it and run them again to see, and sure : enough mounds more "crud" will be shot out of the jets. Do you have any ideas as to what this foreign : substance may be, and if so, how do we get rid of it? Is there possibly a cleaner that we could run through t : the pump to clean out whatever it is that's in it?
