Zodiac Spa Pipe Cleaner 500ml | Flush Spa Plumbing | Pre-Drain Treatment
Keep your spa's plumbing system clean and free-flowing with Zodiac Spa Pipe Cleaner. Used before each water change, it flushes oils, biofilm, and contaminants from the pipes and jets that accumulate between water changes and are invisible to the naked eye. Regular pipe cleaning is one of the most overlooked but important parts of spa maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often should I use Spa Pipe Cleaner?
A: Use it every time you drain and refill your spa, which should be every 3-4 months depending on usage and bather load. It is a pre-drain treatment, not an ongoing maintenance product.
Q: Can I stay in the spa while it is working?
A: No - this is a pre-drain treatment only. Do not use the spa during or after the treatment. Drain fully after the 1-hour cycle.
Q: Why do I need to clean the pipes if I sanitise regularly?
A: Regular sanitising keeps the water clean but does not penetrate the biofilm that builds up inside pipes and jets over time. Pipe cleaner breaks down this biofilm at the source, which regular chlorine cannot reach effectively.
Q: Do I need to remove the filters before using?
A: Yes - always remove filters before adding pipe cleaner and clean them separately with Filter Cleaner Soak at the same time.
