PFAS in Monnaie's tap water: under 3 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
No PFAS detected
The lab sees nothing below 3 ng/L, 6 times our benchmark of 0.5 ng/L. Water above our benchmark would pass this check unnoticed.
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.
The lab detects each of the four substances from 0.5 to 1.5 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 3 ng/L rather than zero.

In Monnaie, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 27 March 2026. The total is below 3 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 6 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <SEUIL µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 3 checks since 13 February 2025, sum of 20 PFAS always below the detection limit.

PFAS over time in Monnaie
3 PFAS checks since 13 February 2025, from the published measurements.
“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 |
|---|---|---|
| < 3 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | |
| < 3 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | |
| < 10 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit |
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 Monnaie safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 9 July 2026, the tap water in Monnaie was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité pour la température. Une température élevée de l’eau stimule la croissance des micro-organismes et peut accroître les problèmes liés au goût, à l’odeur, à la coloration et à la corrosion.”
How high are PFAS levels in Monnaie's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at –. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at – of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Monnaie also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
As far as this check can tell, yes. None of the four compounds was quantified, so their total is below 3 ng/L, the sum of the laboratory's detection limits, and under Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026.
Are PFAS levels rising in Monnaie'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 Monnaie?
The water hardness in Monnaie is 28.4 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
