We don't drink our well water directly because it's unpalatable. It's also salty because of the water softener. We installed an undersink reverse osmosis unit which delivers the water through a separate small tap. We drink it and cook with it. The unit was affordable and the filters last for months with just the 2 of us using the water.
If you want to know more than just chlorine, this company accepts samples from all over the country and has a wide spectrum of water testing services. They supply free sample mailing materials! I don't know the cost but you'll need to phone them anyway so it's easy to find out. They're very friendly. You would probably want Test 4 for domestic consumption.
