PFAS in Montrodat's tap water: under 6 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 6 ng/L, 12 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 1.5 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 6 ng/L rather than zero.

In Montrodat, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 1 July 2026. The total is below 6 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 12 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: not detected, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 3 checks since 26 January 2026, PFAS-4 always below the detection limit (6 ng/L).

PFAS over time in Montrodat
4 PFAS checks since 20 August 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 2 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Montrodat. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “MARVEJOLS”.
“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 | Network |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 ng/L | 0 ng/L | Montrodat | MARVEJOLS | |
| 0 ng/L | 0 ng/L | Marvejols | MARVEJOLS | |
| < 6 ng/L | < 44 ng/L | Montrodat | MONTRODAT | |
| < 6 ng/L · calculated | < 44 ng/L | Marvejols | MARVEJOLS |
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 Montrodat safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 1 July 2026, the tap water in Montrodat 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 Montrodat's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was reported as not detected; the laboratory did not state its reporting limit. The EU limit is 100 ng/L. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Montrodat also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
The check cannot say. None of the four compounds was quantified, but the laboratory's detection limits add up to 6 ng/L, above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026, so a value between the two would go unnoticed.
Are PFAS levels rising in Montrodat's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (0 since 20 August 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.
How hard is the water in Montrodat?
The water hardness in Montrodat is 21 °f (medium). 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 21 September 2026.
