Are walk-in bathtubs hard to maintain?

Walk-in bathtubs made from acrylic or fiberglass can be straightforward to clean when you follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use approved non-abrasive cleaners, rinse residue and keep the door seal and drain clean. Jetted models need their specified flushing or purge routine as well. Self-cleaning features do not remove all upkeep. Compare maintenance instructions and service access before choosing between a soaking tub and a jetted model.
