The difference in location and probably competent personnel makes a difference.
It wont make much of a difference. None of the chemicals really suitable for mass water consumption. The chemicals are important to keep the water system clean/safe but they really need to all be filtered out before drinking (especially those of us that drink 1gal+ per day). They are designed to kill micro-organisms like the ones living in your gut that you need healthy and balanced for good health.
EDIT: forgot to add I use Hague whole home system with an additional UV light. No complaints and it has a 25year warranty. The yearly maintenance is about $220 (carbon replacement and UV lamp). I also use a propure inline filter at the fridge to get a few other items for our drinking water.

my new (old) house came with 2: a reverse osmosis system with what looks like a giant scuba tank in the crawl space and then that 2 filter system w/ the big white 'key' to replace the filters like the post above.
the 'backwash' system seems to be for the whole house and it looks like the smaller filter system fuels a dedicated water spigot in our laundry room (why not the kitchen??) and i have yet to replace the 3 filters but its only like 20-$30 on amazon so i need to go ahead & do that. i am absolutely sure it hasn't been changed in years.
