The context here is the mini piped water supply schemes (designed for population size 1000) and large number of deep bore wells spread in the rural areas and small towns. Preliminary understanding of water quality is possible with field testing kits (FTKs) . The objective here is to test a minimum number of safety parameters to understand if water is potable. Water samples are being tested for total hardness. My question is if the measured value of total hardness is within the acceptable range then should we tests of Calcium and Magnesium?
