Drinking water in 38889
For this postcode the responsible water supplier publishes several supply zones. Which of them serves an individual address is not published — below are the values of the zone with the most documented parameters, the remaining 6 underneath.
How to read the share of the parametric value
Several samples per year: for chemical parameters the mean value is given, for microbiological ones the highest measured value. There the parametric value is zero — a single finding would disappear in the average, and it is precisely that finding which is the information. Which reference applies is stated in the last column of the table.

- WAHB publishes a total hardness of 6.5 °dH for the supply zone Benneckenstein Elbingerode Elend Schierke Sorge Tanne Rübeland einschließlich Kreuztal, ausgenommen Neuwerk (hardness range weich). The hardness range is a classification under the German Detergents and Cleaning Products Act (soft below 8,4 °dH, medium 8,4 to 14 °dH, hard above that) and not a quality verdict — it indicates how much calcium and magnesium is dissolved in the water. Basis: Juni 2025, retrieved on 11/07/2026.
