The North Texas Municipal Water District ( NTMWD ) will conduct its annual chlorine maintenance from March 4 - April 1 to maintain the system and ensure high water quality .
   During this time , some people may be able to taste or smell chlorine in their water . The temporary removal of ammonia can make the chlorine more noticeable , but the levels of chlorine in the water will not increase and will be consistent with levels found throughout the years . The intensity of the taste and odor of the chlorine can depend on how far away you are from the water treatment plant . There are a few steps to take to minimize the odor .
   Refrigerate water in an open pitcher for several hours .
   Add a slice of citrus or cucumber to water .
   Add a crushed 1000 mg Vitamin C tablet to bath water .
   Water disinfection is required to protect public health and keep the water safe . During the normal water treatment process , disinfection is a two - step process . It starts by treating the water at the plant , then adding disinfectant to maintain water quality as it travels long distances through pipes to homes and businesses . Each step is needed to keep tap water free of harmful microorganisms , such as parasites and viruses .
