Eau de Toulouse Métropole has launched a recruitment operation for “water tasters” throughout the metropolis. The objective: to offer its users “a water that is as safe in terms of sanitary quality as it is pleasant to drink throughout the year”.
On its website, Eau de Toulouse indicates that a “water quality” section allows the “community of tasters”, who have volunteered through a form, to give their opinion.
Improve the taste of tap water.
“Water tasters will benefit from training in the tastes and smells of the water. They will then be asked to test the water at home at pre-arranged times and frequencies. They will then provide the results of their tastings in a dedicated mobile app.” , specifies Eau de Toulouse on its website.
“This will allow us to study more closely the effect of rainfall, for example, on water quality. We will also study the quality or taste of the water based on the distance traveled to the tap,” explained Claire Bonnemayre. , the head of the water production department of Toulouse Métropole, to the daily the office.
The experiment should allow Eau de Toulouse, operated by the Veolia group, to assess consumer perception of the taste of water and take their considerations into account by implementing solutions to respond to them.
