Anyone drink water straight out from kitchen tap? Recently the water in my area taste little different than before (Rhodes, NSW). Anyone have similar experiences?

Drinking water has to be potable, and I would think that there are still many people drinking it straight from the tap rather than buying extremely expensive "spring" water, which often also comes out of tap, not a spring.

However, there are all sorts of chemicals put in it 'for our own good'. Sometimes these chemicals are overdone, and as was the case in my area recently, the water stank as soon as the tap was turned on, and I bought a filter jug. For some time now, the water has been fine; must have been a lot of complaints. And, I still prefer to drink it rather than pay through the nose for phoney spring water.

Should be a residual chlorine reading of 1ppm at your tap. If not, boil the water before drinking it.

Mr Opinion,

Time to park the casual racism you drop kick.

We have tank water for household use and water in our underground cisterns for general usage, it must be boiled for human consumption.
