Chlorine Filtration for City Water
Chlorinated Drinking Water
The convenience of being on city water alleviates some headaches such as dealing with a broken well pump, or having to re-dig a well. You may not even mind the use of chlorinated water, but do you like drinking it?
If you grew up with city water you’re probably used to it and don’t really mind the taste or smell of chlorine, but if you grew up with well water – chances are you can’t stand chlorinated drinking water.
Chlorine Used to Kill Harmful Bacteria
Cities have used chlorine to treat water since the 1800’s because it’s effective killing both bacteria and viruses from our ground water.
You may have noticed that you smell the chlorine in your city water more at certain times of day, than others – but not every day. That’s because municipalities are required by the EPA to test the water and if you’re in St. Charles, they test the water supply throughout the day and add more chlorine when necessary to meet the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).
If want to know more about your local area, the City of St. Charles Water Division has released the 2019 Water Quality Report. It provides a look at contaminants detected and contaminants that were tested for, but not found.
You can find more information about safe drinking water and contaminants from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) or from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
