Yes pH and TDS/EC are good overall indicators of chemical quality

you should consider pathogenic bacteria testing as well for health impacts

also recommend a full macro and micro chemical range as an initial test to profile your groundwater characteristic, you can then identify any parameters that may require additional monitoring

Also, be alert to physical changes in smell, taste and colour - this will clearly indicate change in quality

hope this assisted
