Drinking water quality in Custines

Q: Is tap water in Custines safe to drink?

Yes. The latest official test (26 June 2026) checked the tap water in Custines and it passed every requirement.

Q: How high are PFAS levels in Custines'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)

Q: How hard is the water in Custines?

The water hardness in Custines is 10.1 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.

Q: Where does this data come from?

PFAS in drinking water

EU legal limit

<0,005 µg/L Limit: 0.1 µg/L within limit

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. (14 May 2025)

This source does not list each PFAS substance separately, so we cannot compare this water with the health limit.
