PFAS in the tap water of Allonnes (Eure-et-Loir): under 4 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
No PFAS detected
The lab sees nothing below 4 ng/L, 8 times our benchmark of 0.5 ng/L. Water above our benchmark would pass this check unnoticed.
0.5 ng/L is our benchmark, not an official limit. Same EFSA method as Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands, but stricter. It's a yearly average, compared here with the latest check.
Sample taken in Prunay-le-Gillon, on the same distribution network as Allonnes (SECTEUR PRUNAY LE GILLON). The health authority samples one tap per network; a network carries the same treated water everywhere.
More about this result
The US also limits PFOA and PFOS to 4 ng/L each, per substance.
The lab detects each of the four substances from 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 4 ng/L rather than zero.

None found. The lab sees nothing below 4 ng/L, so our 0.5 ng/L benchmark cannot be checked.

In Allonnes, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 3 July 2026. The total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 8 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <0,001 µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Prunay-le-Gillon, on the same network. 2 checks since 10 September 2025, sum of 20 PFAS always below the detection limit (1 ng/L).

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Allonnes safe to drink?
All the values shown here (3 July 2026) are within the legal limits, but the authorities have not published an overall verdict for this water.
How high are PFAS levels in Allonnes's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 1 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 1 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Allonnes also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
As far as this check can tell, yes. None of the four compounds was quantified, so their total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the laboratory's detection limits, and under Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026.
Are PFAS levels rising in Allonnes's tap water?
Calculated PFAS-4 values are listed in the table. The chart uses laboratory-published sum-of-20 results; there are too few laboratory-published PFAS-4 sums for the existing trend calculation.
How hard is the water in Allonnes?
No hardness value is available for Allonnes in this source.
