Has any one else had higher than level chlorine levels coming through their tap water lately.  Check you tank water after you do your normal change to be sure, with the rains perhaps we've had higher levels in Canning Vale and Applecross.

I couldn’t comment on chlorine but have found water chemistry changes between seasons (and I’m guessing treatment would then as well) perhaps. I did try looking this up a while back but not much info on source water mixing / treatment (if any) that I could find.

I have a lot of patients in water corp and it depends where in perth you are, the volume used as to where it gets taken from either dam, ground or desalination.

That’s what it seemed to me as well. Was a bit hard for them to say. Guess not much interest but shops might know if lots of people talking about it?

I tend to over-dose but have tbh never tested before / after for chlorine. I could use the JBL strips I think pretty quick. Might be interesting. From memory the pool went a few ppm chlorine on pool test kit when we filled it.
