As a common disinfectant, chlorine and chloramine additives can leave Northern California tap water with an unpleasant chemical taste and odor. While regulated for safety, elevated chlorine levels can irritate skin, damage plumbing, and corrode appliances over time.
NorCal Water Systems offers customized filtration solutions to remove chlorine effectively while still protecting your household from contaminants. Read on to learn more about symptoms of over-chlorination and how to enjoy better tasting, healthier water from every tap.
