PFAS in Bazoges-en-Pareds's tap water: under 14 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 14 ng/L, 28 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.
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 2 to 5 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 14 ng/L rather than zero.

PFAS over time in Bazoges-en-Pareds
8 PFAS checks since 12 March 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 2 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Bazoges-en-Pareds. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “RESERVOIR DU TALLUD”.
“Calculated”: PFAS-4 worked out from the four substances in the same sample. The chart, averages and trends use lab-published sums only.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Bazoges-en-Pareds safe to drink?
All the values shown here (31 July 2026) are within the legal limits, but the authorities have not published an overall verdict for this water. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”
How high are PFAS levels in Bazoges-en-Pareds's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was reported as not detected; the laboratory did not state its reporting limit. The EU limit is 100 ng/L. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Bazoges-en-Pareds also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
The check cannot say. None of the four compounds was quantified, but the laboratory's detection limits add up to 14 ng/L, above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026, so a value between the two would go unnoticed.
Are PFAS levels rising in Bazoges-en-Pareds'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 Bazoges-en-Pareds?
The water hardness in Bazoges-en-Pareds is 15.8 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
