Does anyone know how to get the "chlorinated" taste from the tap-water? I have boiled the water and the taste still doesn't go away. I am from a small town in Northern California,(about 2 hrs. north on I5) and the tap water tasted wonderful and I never had to buy water, so it REALLY bothers me to buy water from the store. Thank you for your ideas.
Thank you all so much for your great advice. I am going to try all the home remedies and also check into how much it would cost for a faucet purifier. I'm going to price them the next time I go to Wal-Mart. Thank you all again and God Bless You. :)
Hi C.,
All you have to do is fill a container with water and let it sit for a while. The chlorine dissipates when exposed to air. After a time, put water in the fridge and use within 24 hours. You can buy carbon filters which will filter it out but just exposing it to air will do wonders.
Sincerely,

I had the same problem until I went to the health food store and they told me to put a pitch of Vitamin C (finely ground) in a pitcher. Start by adding very little and add a bit at a time until the chlorine taste is gone. It also adds more vitamin c to your diet.
I recommend the faucet-mounted Pur water filter. The water tastes great from it and even though its faucet-mounted, you still have the ability to choose filtered or regular tap water. They are a bit pricey, but end up paying for themselves in the long run.
I have used the Brita pitcher with a filter and it works really well. Now we have an under-sink filter and I love it, but they aren't cheap.
