Hello,
We have dug a new borewell around 4 months ago in Trivandrum. The well water here when teested shows normal. But the borewell water smells muddy and rust. The test report are as follows:
- PH - 7.0
- Total Hardness 81.1 Mg/L
- Alkalinity 100.0 Mg/L
- Iron (as Fe) 5.0 Mg/L
- Chloride (as Cl) 11.66Mg/L
- Sulphates *(as SO4) Nil
- Residual Free Chlorine Nil
- Nitrate (as NO3) Nil
- Ammonia Nil
- Nitrite Nil
Is this the deep aquifer problem or the problem of rusted pipes? What could be the remedy?
