Recently bought a house that had a jacuzzi tub, in good condition. However when tub is turned on black specks come out. I think this may be a common problem from teh little research I have done. Any suggestions?

use a detergent made for dish washers,, not bleach!!! the bleach will rot the plastic parts!! run the soap for 10-15 minutes and remove,, put clean water and rinse,, while it is rinseing see if there are still flakes and repeat if necessary!!

It is mold.
When not in use, before use fill / rise pipe with a bleach solution.
Let the water clean the pipes by running it.
Now I remember:
This Jacuzzi thing really bites.
More work than it is worth it.
I nice hot shower goes a long way.
A shower for two is a lot of fun.

Its mold or algae in the jets. Its a natural buildup. Jacuzzi sells a additive to get rid of it. Check it out online.
You can also try a hot water and bleach mixture
