Pools that are on well water tend to be more of a change than city managed water. To deal with the addition of fresh well water to your pool with eiether a newly filled pool or using to replace evaporated water yoy must have your water tested. Some on the minerals in the ground some areas are high in iron (which will cause a brown staining on white plaster pools), calcuim ( causes white buildup and roughens plaster), and a host of others. The good news is that all of these minerals are easily treated with chemicals to counteract the mineral or remove it. Take a water sample to your local pool store, they usually test for free and they can tell you what is in your water and what you need to correct your water chemistry.

Will a filter be enough for a small pool or do you need to add chemicals?

Filters and chemicals work differently. You'll need both. The filter removes particulate from the water, which makes it clear (which makes you happy). The chemicals act by reducing the amount of microorganisms growing in the water. The chemicals work first and the filter sweeps up after them. For a private pool you can use less of the chemicals than are usually used in public pools.
