What chemicals in particular are a trigger?
Not completely sure what specific chemicals. I can smell the chlorine when they do treatments but I’m sure they use more than just that. The last 5 years or so it depends on municipal location (I was on a good aquifer in NWLA, then went to HSV, Ar, and now West Funroe).
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.
