A total of 80 water samples were collected from several private wells (Sita Buzăului village – Covasna County) and public springs (Vatra Dornei area – Suceava County), during five sampling campaigns (November 2016, January –April 2017). The wells had a higher content of dissolved ions than the springs, while nickel was slightly higher in springs than in wells, due to the more acidic pH. The levels of the analyzed parameters were lower during January and February 2017 than in March 2017. Based on the water quality index, 75% of the investigated water sources can be classified as excellent quality status, 19% correspond to good status, while 6% have a poor water quality.
