Donna,

You can take the jets out, and soak them over night in white vinegar, that will clean them. As far the the gunk floating around, what chemicals are you using?

Jacuzzi tubs will be yucky if you use most kinds of soap, bubble bath, or shampoo in them. The only way to avoid the yuck is to jacuzzi first, then turn the jets off when you use soap. (And don't use jets again until you have new water.) The soap residue goes into the intake and gets all mixed up and comes out yuck.

Also, some soaps are "yuckier" than others. For example, Dove will give you a lot more yuck than Irish Spring.

if it looks like small pieces of wet tissue paper- white water mold. Shock the **** out of it with chlorine or dump it and start fresh.
