PFAS in Dieupentale's tap water: 8 ng/L, 16x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
16× above our health benchmark
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.
Sample taken in Grisolles, on the same distribution network as Dieupentale (GRISOLLES (UDI)). The health authority samples one tap per network; a network carries the same treated water everywhere.
More about this result
The US also limits PFOA and PFOS to 4 ng/L each, per substance.
Substances below the detection limit count as 0, so the real total may be higher.
One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).
More PFAS than in 95% of the cities we track

In Dieupentale, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 8 ng/L (0.008 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 13 October 2025. That's 16 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: <0,044 µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Grisolles, on the same network.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Dieupentale safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 13 October 2025, the tap water in Dieupentale was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”
How high are PFAS levels in Dieupentale's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 44 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 44 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Dieupentale also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 8 ng/L. That is 2 times Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L, in force since 2026. Germany will set a similar one in 2028. The water still passes the current EU legal limit (100 ng/L for the total of 20 PFAS).
