A small amount of bleach. WTH. I grew up across the river from Union Carbide’s chlorine plant.

I want to do it more for taste of the water. My home water is pretty crappy and tastes a lot fresher coming out of the RO unit compared to the tap. And, lot of RV parks I’ve stayed at have kinda suspect fresh water supplies.
As far as the chlorine plant you mentioned, I worked in one for several years as a young man. It didn’t kill me, but I got exposed to chlorine clouds on more than one occasion. Nasty place to work/live.
