Edmonton Water Smell

[Kolt30]

Any one else think the water has a stronger Chlorine/Bleach smell the past week or am i just on crack?

You are on Crack.
It's spring time in Alberta. This has been going on since we had water treatment plants.
Would you prefer the alternative?

Prepping for spring run off by changing the treatment recipe I would imagine.

That's just pure water reacting with Edmonton's air. It's especially noticeable near the legislature, city hall, etc.

That chlorine tast is not bad.

Every spring the water use to taste like ditch water.

Good excuse to drink beer.

Think I'll go with Lefty. Calgary does the same and I won't drink Olds or Sundre water this time of year.
