It is an object of the invention to provide a optimized rational water treatment technique for chemically treating water to be treated. A representative water treatment apparatus is adapted for chemically treating water by using chemicals. In a water treatment apparatus, a disinfectant within a chemical cartridge dissolves out in water to be treated in a disinfecting chamber so that the water is disinfected. Further, a magnet is disposed within the chemical cartridge. The accommodated position of the magnet within the chemical cartridge is changed according to the remaining amount of the disinfectants. The magnetism of such magnet is detected by a magnetic sensor disposed on the outside of the chemical cartridge, so that information on consumption of the disinfectant can be detected.
