you can go to your local pool shop and get a test kit for chlorine..
or you can go to your local environmental lab.. and pay them do a chlroine residue test.. it should be about 12.00 something i would think

Well, if you have access to a standard Chemistry lab...
Add lead(II) nitrate to your sample. A white precipitate would form if chloride ions are present
