Amount found in the water 1 ng/L 0.001 µg/L · the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4)
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

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 Lamorlaye, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 1 ng/L (0.001 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 15 July 2026. That's 2 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, but below Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 15 ng/L (0.015 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 3 checks since 22 December 2025: PFAS-4 up to 1 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit, averaging at least 0.33 ng/L over 12 months (non-detects as 0).

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Lamorlaye safe to drink?

All the values shown here (15 July 2026) are within the legal limits, but the authorities have not published an overall verdict for this water. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”

How high are PFAS levels in Lamorlaye's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 15 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 15 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Lamorlaye also meet the strictest limits in Europe?

Yes. Even against Europe's strictest legal limit, Sweden's 4 ng/L in force since 2026, the measured value of 1 ng/L stays below.

Are PFAS levels rising in Lamorlaye's tap water?

Too few quantified checks to say (1 since 12 January 2024). 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 Lamorlaye?

The water hardness in Lamorlaye is 32.8 °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.
