PFAS in Marbeuf's tap water: 3.1 ng/L, 6.2x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
6.2× 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 Daubeuf-la-Campagne, on the same distribution network as Marbeuf (QUITTEBEUF). 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).
More PFAS than in 90% of the cities we track

In Marbeuf, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 3.1 ng/L (0.0031 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 9 June 2026. That's 6.2 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, but below Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 3.1 ng/L (0.0031 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Daubeuf-la-Campagne, on the same network. 3 checks since 11 March 2026: sum of 20 PFAS from 3.1 ng/L to 10.3 ng/L.

Details and sources
PFAS over time in Marbeuf
3 PFAS checks since 11 March 2026, from the published measurements. Samples from 3 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Marbeuf.
“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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.1 ng/L – < 6.1 ng/L · calculated | 3.1 ng/L | Daubeuf-la-Campagne | |
| 6.4 ng/L – < 8.4 ng/L · calculated | 10.3 ng/L | Villez-sur-le-Neubourg | |
| 2.8 ng/L – < 5.8 ng/L · calculated | 3.9 ng/L | Bernienville |
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

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Marbeuf safe to drink?
At the latest check, the water was over at least one limit. “Eau non conforme à la limite de qualité fixée pour les nitrates. Les autres paramètres mesurés sont conformes aux exigences de qualité en vigueur. La collectivité bénéficie d'une dérogation préfectorale l’autorisant à distribuer une eau destinée à la consommation humaine dépassant la limite de qualité de 50 mg/l pour les nitrates pendant la durée des travaux nécessaires au retour à la conformité.”
How high are PFAS levels in Marbeuf's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 3.1 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 3 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Marbeuf 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 3.1 ng/L stays below.
Are PFAS levels rising in Marbeuf's tap water?
Calculated PFAS-4 values are listed in the table. The chart uses laboratory-published sum-of-20 results; there are too few laboratory-published PFAS-4 sums for the existing trend calculation.
How hard is the water in Marbeuf?
The water hardness in Marbeuf is 29.3 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
