Since water is very limited I'd like the whole system to be self contained, so that the hot tub empties into a reservoir at the start of the stream and can be filled from the same reservoir. Would I have to filter the water at any point, or does the fact that it is constantly running help to clean it? Since the tub is only used for relaxing, not bathing, I'm assuming that it will be relatively clean when it exits. Any tips?
