PFAS in drinking water

No PFAS detected

Amount found in the water < 6 ng/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · the lab's detection limit 20 PFAS looked for, none found
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

The lab sees nothing below 6 ng/L, 12 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 1 to 2 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 6 ng/L rather than zero.

In Champsanglard, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 3 September 2025. The total is below 6 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 12 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <SEUIL µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L).

Values to watch

These results are close to their legal limit, or over it.

Outside a reference value: Turbidity 1.8 NFU on 1 July 2026 (reference ≤ 1 NFU). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Champsanglard safe to drink?

At the latest check, the water was over at least one limit. “Suivi renforcé : Les exigences de qualité, définies par le Code de la Santé Publique, sont satisfaites à l'exception du paramètre turbidité. Cette eau nécessite une amélioration de la filière de traitement pour réduire la teneur en matières organiques.”

How high are PFAS levels in Champsanglard's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at –. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at – of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Champsanglard 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 6 ng/L, above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026, so a value between the two would go unnoticed.

How hard is the water in Champsanglard?

The water hardness in Champsanglard is 11.4 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
