My friend and I have discussed the chlorinated issue in the water so many times since she works in a drinking water plant (she is a lab analyst and supervisor with her masters in aquatic microbiology).
Flouridation in the water is something (in Ca) that each county votes on. So you would have to verify with your provider if the water has flouride or not.
The amount of chlorine in the water is so low that they have to use special instruments to detect it. There is more lead and metals that occur naturally in water than chlorine at any level in drinking water. Plus, chlorine is necessary to kills algae and bacteria and cytoplasms that naturally live in wells and aquaducts.
Since they chlorinate our water, we are lucky enough to not have to boil our water in order to use it like they do in other parts of the world. While sometimes the smell and taste of chlorine can be percepted, it is also dependent on the plumbing in your home, particular levels that have to be adjusted due to algae blooms, and of course any bacterial blooms. It also depends on if you have well or aquaduct water.
There is actually (in Ca) more contaminents in rain water than in the drinking water with all the pollution in the air.
That being said, it is ridiculous to state that you can't collect your own rain water. Especially when in LA county where they can fine you for running your sprinklers too often! I mean, whose gonna know anyway? The water collection police? That is absurd...
