That's the opposite of how evaporation works. Evaporation boils off liquids and leaves the solids behind. You're effectively concentrating the chlorine by boiling water unless you're capturing and drinking the steam.

 

Boiling is only good for killing bacteria that dies at 100 degrees.

 

Edit: Good news! e.coli and salmonella die at 70 degrees.

Not really.

Anyone with a pool will tell you that you can smell the chlorine. Meaning that it leaves the water. It is not a solid.

If you heat the water the chlorine gas will leave the water faster. 

There are two reasons why pools need more chlorine in summer. One is that that algae grows better in warmer water and the other is chlorine leaving the warmer water faster. (higher kinetic energy)

Still no good reason to drink water in stead of beer! If you are really desperate for some germs, rather just kiss random strangers.

Go lick ATM keypads after payday for maximum exposure.

Partially correct, however UV (sunlight) is the main destroyer of chlorine in swimming pools, causing chlorine to breakdown into hypocholrites(sp?) and return to the atmosphere as gas. Summer results in longer sunlight exposure and thus faster chlorine breakdown. If your pool water is not stabilised, direct sunlight will destroy the majority of available chlorine (over 90%) in the water within a few hours.

The pool smell, according to https://chlorine.americanchemistry.com/Science-Center/Chlorine-Compound-of-the-Month-Library/Chloramines-Understanding-Pool-Smell/

 

 

"A whiff of pool water - often described as the smell of chlorine -can stir happy thoughts of summer. If strong enough, however, "pool smell" can signify a source of irritation to the eyes, lungs and skin of swimmers.

Pool smell is due, not to chlorine, but to chloramines, chemical compounds that build up in pool water when it is improperly treated. 

Chloramines result from the combination of two ingredients: (a) chlorine disinfectants and (b) perspiration, oils and urine that enter pools on the bodies of swimmers. Chlorine disinfectants are added to pool water to destroy germs that can give swimmers diarrhea, ear aches and athlete's foot. Perspiration, oils and urine, however, are unwanted additions to pool water. By showering before entering the pool, and washing these substances from the skin, swimmers can help minimize pool smell."
