PFAS in Jeuxey's tap water: 23 ng/L, 46x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
46× 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.
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).

In Jeuxey, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 23 ng/L (0.023 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 10 July 2025. That's 46 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 31 ng/L (0.031 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 2 checks since 19 May 2025: sum of 20 PFAS from 31 ng/L to 40 ng/L.

PFAS over time in Jeuxey
2 PFAS checks since 19 May 2025, from the published measurements.
“Calculated”: PFAS-4 worked out from the four substances in the same sample. The chart, averages and trends use lab-published sums only.
| Date | PFAS-4 | Sum of 20 PFAS |
|---|---|---|
| 23 ng/L – < 25 ng/L · calculated | 31 ng/L | |
| 29 ng/L – < 31 ng/L · calculated | 40 ng/L |
Calculated values: “<” is an upper bound from published thresholds, “≥” a lower bound, “–” means no published sum or complete measurement. How to read a PFAS result

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Jeuxey safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 27 July 2026, the tap water in Jeuxey 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 Jeuxey's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 31 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 31 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Jeuxey also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 23 ng/L. That is 5.8 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).
Are PFAS levels rising in Jeuxey's tap water?
Calculated PFAS-4 values are listed in the table. The chart uses laboratory-published sum-of-20 results; there are too few laboratory-published PFAS-4 sums for the existing trend calculation.
How hard is the water in Jeuxey?
The water hardness in Jeuxey is 18.2 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
