PFAS in Glanon's tap water: under 2.5 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 2.5 ng/L, 5 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.
Sample taken in Chivres, on the same distribution network as Glanon (SIAEP DE SEURRE, R. GLANON SUD). 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.
The lab detects each of the four substances from 0.5 to 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 2.5 ng/L rather than zero.

None found. The lab sees nothing below 2.5 ng/L, so our 0.5 ng/L benchmark cannot be checked.

In Glanon, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 15 June 2026. The total is below 2.5 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 5 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <SEUIL µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Chivres, on the same network. 2 checks since 26 November 2025, PFAS-4 always below the detection limit. Source: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM).
Details and sources
PFAS over time in Glanon
2 PFAS checks since 26 November 2025, values as published. Samples from 2 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Glanon.
| Date | PFAS-4 | Sum of 20 PFAS | Sampled at |
|---|---|---|---|
| < detection limit | < detection limit | Chivres | |
| < detection limit | < detection limit | Glanon |
“<” means not detected, the figure being the detection limit. “–” means not published. Labs have only reported the PFAS-4 sum (SANDRE code 9268) since autumn 2025. How to read a PFAS result

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Glanon safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 21 July 2026, the tap water in Glanon 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 Glanon's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at –. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at – of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Glanon 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 2.5 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 Glanon's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (0 since 26 November 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values.
How hard is the water in Glanon?
The water hardness in Glanon is 33.4 °f (hard). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
All values come from official publications: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM). Retrieved on 21 September 2026.
