PFAS in drinking water

None of the 4 most harmful PFAS detected

Amount found in the water < 4 ng/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · the lab's detection limit 20 PFAS looked for, 1 ng/L found in total
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

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.

In Fleury-sur-Loire, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 13 May 2025. The total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 8 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: 1 ng/L (0.001 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: pH 6.2 unité pH on 26 May 2026 (reference 6.5–9 unité pH). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Fleury-sur-Loire safe to drink?

Yes. At the check on 26 May 2026, the tap water in Fleury-sur-Loire was within every limit tested. Outside a reference value: pH 6.2 unité pH on 26 May 2026 (reference 6.5–9 unité pH). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits. “Le pH est inférieur à la référence réglementaire de 6.5 unité pH. Il f avorise la dissolution des métaux des canalisations et des robinets. L es autres paramètres mesurés répondent aux normes de potabilité.”

How high are PFAS levels in Fleury-sur-Loire's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 1 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 1 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Fleury-sur-Loire 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.

How hard is the water in Fleury-sur-Loire?

The water hardness in Fleury-sur-Loire is 12.6 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
