PFAS in drinking water

No PFAS detected

Amount found in the water < 8 ng/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · the lab's detection limit 20 PFAS looked for, none found
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

The lab sees nothing below 8 ng/L, 16 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 2 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 8 ng/L rather than zero.

None found. The lab sees nothing below 8 ng/L, so our 0.5 ng/L benchmark cannot be checked.

Values to watch

These results are close to their legal limit, or over it.

One routine sample was outside a limit: Lead 54 µg/L on 10 August 2023 (limit ≤ 10 µg/L). This is a single result, not an official verdict on the supply. Outside a reference value: Electrical conductivity 1,300 µS/cm on 23 June 2026 (reference 200–1,100 µS/cm), Sulphate 410 mg/L on 23 June 2026 (reference ≤ 250 mg/L). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Neuvelle-lès-Voisey safe to drink?

Yes. At the check on 23 June 2026, the tap water in Neuvelle-lès-Voisey was within every limit tested. One routine sample was outside a limit: Lead 54 µg/L on 10 August 2023 (limit ≤ 10 µg/L). This is a single result, not an official verdict on the supply. Outside a reference value: Electrical conductivity 1,300 µS/cm on 23 June 2026 (reference 200–1,100 µS/cm), Sulphate 410 mg/L on 23 June 2026 (reference ≤ 250 mg/L). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité mais présentant une forte teneur en sulfates. En raison d'éventuels effets laxatifs l'utilisation de cette eau est déconseillée pour les nourrissons (pour la boisson et la préparation des aliments). Un goût particulier de l'eau peut être ressenti.”

How high are PFAS levels in Neuvelle-lès-Voisey's drinking water?

At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 5 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 5 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Neuvelle-lès-Voisey 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 8 ng/L, above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026, so a value between the two would go unnoticed.

How hard is the water in Neuvelle-lès-Voisey?

The water hardness in Neuvelle-lès-Voisey is 75.2 °f (hard). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
