Hello everyone,

My sister recently started building her house in a rural area. Fortunately, there is already a borehole on the property from which we can draw water for construction. Now my question is:
Should a water quality test be conducted to ensure that the brickwork does not later develop efflorescence or similar issues due to certain substances like manure or ammonia contained in it?
And if so, which specific substances should be checked during the analysis?

Thanks in advance for your answers!
I hope to get some feedback so the construction can be completed as quickly as possible. 🙂
