PFAS in Cornillac's tap water: under 4 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 4 ng/L, 8 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 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 4 ng/L rather than zero.

None found. The lab sees nothing below 4 ng/L, so our 0.5 ng/L benchmark cannot be checked.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Cornillac safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 2 July 2026, the tap water in Cornillac was within every limit tested. Outside a reference value: Coliform bacteria 14 n/(100mL) on 2 July 2026 (reference ≤ 0 mL)), Iron 278 µg/L on 18 October 2024 (reference ≤ 200 µg/L), Turbidity 5.3 NFU on 2 July 2026 (reference ≤ 2 NFU). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité pour les paramètres Turbidité et Coliformes totaux. La présence de coliformes sans autres indices de dégradation de la qualité bactérienne de l'eau n'entraine pas la non conformité du prélèvement, bien que la Référence Qualité pour ce paramètre soit fixée à 0. Un entretien des ouvrages et une chloration préventive du réseau sont recommandés ainsi que la recherche des causes possibles d'altération de la qualité de l'eau.”
How high are PFAS levels in Cornillac's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 29 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 29 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Cornillac also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
As far as this check can tell, yes. None of the four compounds was quantified, so their total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the laboratory's detection limits, and under Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026.
Are PFAS levels rising in Cornillac's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (0 since 12 January 2026). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values.
How hard is the water in Cornillac?
The water hardness in Cornillac is 22.8 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
