More about this result
PFAS-4 is not published for this supply area
Sum of 20 PFAS: 0.2 ng/L (0.0002 µg/L), 0.2 % of the 100 ng/L legal limit, sampled 5 March 2026.
Values from Isonkyrön vesihuoltolaitos, one of 2 supply areas serving Isokyrö; the others are in the table.
The four EFSA compounds (PFOA, PFOS, PFNA, PFHxS) are not reported separately, so the 4 ng/L health benchmark and this site's 0.5 ng/L benchmark cannot be checked.
PFAS-20 monitoring is mandatory since 12 January 2026; 158 of 287 municipalities have a published result so far.
Within the legal limit. This source does not report the four main PFAS separately.

In Isokyrö, the latest published PFAS-20 result is 0.2 ng/L (0.0002 µg/L), below the EU legal limit of 100 ng/L, sampled 5 March 2026. The four EFSA compounds (PFAS-4) are not itemised, so this water cannot be compared with the 0.5 ng/L health benchmark used by pfasnearme.

Values to watch
These results are close to their legal limit, or over it.
One routine sample was outside a limit: Iron 1,100 µg/L on 23 March 2026 (limit ≤ 200 µg/L), Oxidisability (permanganate index) 17 mg O2/L on 13 January 2021 (limit ≤ 5 mg O2/L). This is a single result, not an official verdict on the supply.

| Iron | 1,100 µg/L | ≤ 200 µg/L | over the limit |
| Oxidisability (permanganate index) | 17 mg O2/L | ≤ 5 mg O2/L | over the limit |

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Isokyrö safe to drink?
The authorities have not published an overall verdict for this water. One routine sample was outside a limit: Iron 1,100 µg/L on 23 March 2026 (limit ≤ 200 µg/L), Oxidisability (permanganate index) 17 mg O2/L on 13 January 2021 (limit ≤ 5 mg O2/L). This is a single result, not an official verdict on the supply. The four EFSA compounds (PFAS-4) are not itemised, so this water cannot be compared with the 0.5 ng/L health benchmark used by pfasnearme.
How high are PFAS levels in Isokyrö's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.2 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 0.2 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Which PFAS limits apply in Finland?
Finland applies decree STM 1352/2015 of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health as amended by 2/2023: "PFAS-aineiden summa" (sum of 20 PFAS) at most 0.10 µg/l, that is 100 ng/L, applied from 12 January 2026. There is no national PFAS-4 limit; Sweden applies 4 ng/L. This site's 0.5 ng/L benchmark is stricter than both.
How hard is the water in Isokyrö?
The water hardness in Isokyrö is 0.4 mmol/L (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
All values come from official publications: Ruokavirasto (VATI) / Suomen ympäristökeskus Syke, Juomavesidirektiivi-rajapinta. Retrieved on 28 September 2026.

PFAS-yhdisteiden summan (20 yhdistettä) raja-arvo on 0,10 µg/l (STM 1352/2015, muutos 2/2023, sovellettu 12.1.2026 alkaen). Neljän EFSA-yhdisteen summaa (PFAS-4) ei julkaista.
