Drinking water quality in Baccarat
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,005 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (13 January 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.

Official assessment
The latest official test passed all quality requirements.
„Eau d'alimentation ne satisfaisant pas aux références de qualité microbiologique règlementaires en vigueur en raison de la présence de germes de type coliformes. Toutefois, la présence seule et en faible nombre de coliformes, en l'absence de tout autre germe d'origine fécale ne présente pas de risque sanitaire pour le consommateur. Des mesures correctives doivent être prises afin de rétablir la qualité de l'eau. Une analyse de contrôle sera réalisée prochainement afin de vérifier le retour à une situation normale.“
Values to watch
These values are at least halfway to their legal limit, or over it.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Baccarat safe to drink?
Yes. The latest official test (26 June 2026) checked the tap water in Baccarat and it passed every requirement.
How high are PFAS levels in Baccarat's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,005 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 Baccarat 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 Baccarat?
The water hardness in Baccarat is 5 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
