In this research, an endeavour has been made to study physicochemical parameters as an attempt to provide the water industry with an updated understanding of factors that influence the potability of water. Corrosion especially in terms of Iron is one of the most critical problems faced by drinking water facilities. Many Parameters affect pipe corrosion, including water quality and composition, flow conditions, biological activity, and corrosion inhibitors. In this study, potability of water was studied along with 30 different parameters. In particular, this article focuses on underground water and its potability studies. Various physicochemical parameters as well as heavy metal contents of water samples were studied. The results showed that underground water samples of residential area were not only containing traces of heavy metals but also were showing remarkable hardness.
