PFAS in Mas-Grenier's tap water: 2 ng/L, 4x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
4× 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.
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 Mas-Grenier, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 2 ng/L (0.002 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 5 August 2025. That's 4 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, but below Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: <0,044 µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L).

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Mas-Grenier safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 27 January 2026, the tap water in Mas-Grenier 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 Mas-Grenier's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 44 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 44 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Mas-Grenier 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 2 ng/L stays below.
