Hi,
We are in a massive drought in Cape Town at the moment and I'm using bore hole water in my jacuzzi. I'm getting the water from a friend, so I'm trying to make it last as long as possible. A couple of weeks ago I took the paper filter to him to blow it out with the same bore hole water, but a few days later, the jacuzzi water started getting dirty and a little bit oily it seems.
So my question is, does the paper filter get organisms on it like a aquariums filter that helps balance the water? I'm probably way off here so I'm just trying to figure out why the water got dirty right after cleaning the filter. I've replaced all the water in the mean time, so I'm trying to avoid having the same situation again.
Thanks in advance.
Conrad
