Drinking water quality in Artix
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,1 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (27 April 2026)
The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0 µg/L, below the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026.
Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Artix safe to drink?
Yes. The latest official test (27 April 2026) checked the tap water in Artix and it passed every requirement.
How high are PFAS levels in Artix's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,1 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Artix also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
Yes. Even against Europe's strictest limit, the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026, the measured value of 0 µg/L stays below.
How hard is the water in Artix?
The water hardness in Artix is 16.6 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
All values come from official publications: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM). Retrieved on 28 August 2026.
