It probably is TDS after a while, the key is, how long it stays that way after the jets are off.  On  a tub just refilled it only takes a second or two to clear. I'll bet for him its a bit longer.   Probably an overall healthy tub, but after a few months it happens.

Clean those filters & shock your water.
That will help a bit.  If it really bothers you, do as hottub.pool_boy suggests and dump that water.

Chas's law number 1                 dump water after 1 st month of ownership

Chas's law number 2                 water is the cheapest chem you can put in your tub



Yes you are probably right, the TDS could be high.   You could try a clarifier if your not ready to change your water just yet.
