PFAS in drinking water

EU legal limit
<SEUIL µg/L Limit: 0.1 µg/L within limit

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (12 May 2026)

Health limit (used in Sweden)
0 µg/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · Limit: 0.004 µg/L below health limit

The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0 µg/L, below the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026.

Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.

Official assessment

The latest official test passed all quality requirements.

„L’eau produite était, au moment du prélèvement, conforme aux exigences bactériologiques et aux limites de qualité physico-chimiques. Toutefois, le calcul de l'équilibre calco-carbonique selon la méthode Legrand et Poirier indiquait que l'eau était agressive.“
