PFAS in drinking water

13.4× above our health benchmark

Amount found in the water 6.7 ng/L 0.0067 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.

Sample taken in Plouha, on the same distribution network as Lannebert (PAR VIRNIC (+ INTERCONNEXION)). 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.

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 Lannebert, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 6.7 ng/L (0.0067 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 24 September 2025. That's 13.4 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 6.7 ng/L (0.0067 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Plouha, on the same network. 4 checks since 24 February 2025: PFAS-4 up to 6.7 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit, averaging at least 1.68 ng/L over 12 months (non-detects as 0).

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Lannebert safe to drink?

Yes. At the check on 24 September 2025, the tap water in Lannebert 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 Lannebert's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 6.7 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 7 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

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

No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 6.7 ng/L. That is 1.68 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 Lannebert's tap water?

Too few quantified checks to say (1 since 24 February 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values.

How hard is the water in Lannebert?

The water hardness in Lannebert is 14 °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 12 September 2026.

Same water network

Same distribution network as Lannebert, so in principle the same water.
