If you have a jetted/jacuzzi tub, you will have to take a little care in maintaining the internal components of it. About twice a year you should clean the unit out. The 1st. step is to fill the tub with hot water, just enough to cover the intake and jets. Turn the unit on and add 2 tablespoons of automatic dish washing detergent and 4 ounces of bleach. The bleach will kill any mold inside the pump and hoses. Run the tub for about ten minutes and drain. You must refill the tub again with just plain hot water and run for 5 minutes and drain. To go one step further in my illustration to the right, you may want to remove the intake cover, and clean it out with an old toothbrush, as well as the jets. This should help to keep your tub in tip top shape and more important keep you safe from mold & mildew concerns.
