PFAS in La Renaudie's tap water: under 4 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 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.
Sample taken in Le Brugeron, on the same distribution network as La Renaudie (LA RAILLIERE LE FONTEILLET). 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 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 La Renaudie, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 26 September 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: <0,029 µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Le Brugeron, on the same network. 2 checks since 22 July 2025, PFAS-4 always below the detection limit (4 ng/L).

Details and sources
PFAS over time in La Renaudie
3 PFAS checks since 13 May 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 2 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to La Renaudie. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “LA RAILLIERE LE FONTEILLET”.
“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 | Sampled at | Network |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| < 4 ng/L | < 29 ng/L | Le Brugeron | LA RAILLIERE LE FONTEILLET | |
| < 20 ng/L | < 29 ng/L | Le Brugeron | LA RAILLIERE LE FONTEILLET | |
| < 4 ng/L · calculated | 5 ng/L | La Renaudie | LA RENAUDIE |
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
What the latest check found
At the latest check, the water was within every limit tested.
Values to watch
These results are close to their legal limit, or over it.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in La Renaudie safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 17 July 2026, the tap water in La Renaudie was within every limit tested. Outside a reference value: pH 5.9 unité pH on 17 July 2026 (reference 6.5–9 unité pH), Electrical conductivity <50 µS/cm on 17 July 2026 (reference 200–1,100 µS/cm). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité.”
How high are PFAS levels in La Renaudie's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 29 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 29 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in La Renaudie 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.
Are PFAS levels rising in La Renaudie's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (0 since 13 May 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.
How hard is the water in La Renaudie?
The water hardness in La Renaudie is 0.7 °f (soft). 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.
Same water network
Same distribution network as La Renaudie, so in principle the same water.
