What this filter does and does not do
The honest summary to read before buying:
- The certified test allows up to 70 ng/L of PFOA/PFOS at the outlet, far above the 4 ng/L reference and this site's 0.5 ng/L benchmark.
- Only PFOA and PFOS are certified; PFNA, PFHxS and short-chain PFAS are not.
- The cartridge has a certified life of 56.78 litres: for a family that is a change every one to three weeks, about 225 to 310 € a year at 2 L a day.
- A saturated cartridge can release what it has captured; the supplied TDS meter is there to catch that moment.
This comparison is a buying aid, not medical advice. The PFAS in your water are on your city's page; this site compares results with its 0.5 ng/L health benchmark for the sum of PFOA + PFOS + PFNA + PFHxS and with the 4 ng/L legal reference. No certified filter guarantees reaching those values.

| Type of evidence | Independent certification The test spikes 1,500 ng/L of PFOA/PFOS and requires the outlet to stay at or below 70 ng/L; this is the standard's pass mark, far above the 4 ng/L legal reference and the 0.5 ng/L benchmark used on this site. The rated service life of the cartridge is only 56.78 litres. The French store page speaks of PFAS in general; the certified figure covers PFOA and PFOS only. |
