Passes the EU legal limit and below the health limit

PFAS in drinking water

EU legal limit
<SEUIL µg/L Limit: 0.1 µg/L within limit

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (4 June 2026)

Health limit (used in Sweden)
0 µg/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · Limit: 0.004 µg/L below health limit

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 Carbon-Blanc safe to drink?

Yes. The latest official test (25 June 2026) checked the tap water in Carbon-Blanc and it passed every requirement.

How high are PFAS levels in Carbon-Blanc's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL 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 Carbon-Blanc 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 Carbon-Blanc?

The water hardness in Carbon-Blanc is 19.3 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
