PFAS in Le Plessis-Luzarches's tap water: 6 ng/L, 12x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
12× 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.
Sample taken in Fosses, on the same distribution network as Le Plessis-Luzarches (DISTRIBUTION RES. FOSSES 500). 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).

Does the water in Le Plessis-Luzarches also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 6 ng/L. That is 1.5 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).
How hard is the water in Le Plessis-Luzarches?
The water hardness in Le Plessis-Luzarches is 15.2 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
