Drinking water quality in Epfig
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.004 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 4 % of the limit. (25 March 2025)
This source does not list each PFAS substance separately, so we cannot compare this water with the health limit.

Official assessment
The latest official test passed all quality requirements.
„Eau destinée à la consommation humaine conforme aux limites de qualité réglementaires pour les paramètres analysés. Eau d'alimentation ne satisfaisant pas aux références de qualité microbiologique en vigueur en raison de sa concentration en bactéries de type coliformes. Toutefois, en l'absence de tout autre germe d'origine fécale, la présence de ces bactéries ne présente pas de risque sanitaire pour le consommateur. Il appartient au distributeur d'effectuer un entretien régulier du réseau d'adduction d'eau (désinfection par chloration au niveau du réservoir, purges des canalisations, etc.).“
