PFAS in Pleurtuit's tap water: under 3.4 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
None of the 4 most harmful PFAS detected
The lab sees nothing below 3.4 ng/L, 6.8 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 0.4 to 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 3.4 ng/L rather than zero.

In Pleurtuit, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 24 February 2026. The total is below 3.4 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 6.8 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: 9.8 ng/L (0.0098 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 5 checks since 22 April 2025: PFAS-4 up to 2.54 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit, averaging at least 1.7 ng/L over 12 months (non-detects as 0). No clear trend. Source: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM).

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Pleurtuit safe to drink?
All the values shown here (6 July 2026) are within the legal limits, but the authorities have not published an overall verdict for this water. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés. Les analyses réalisées sur l'eau traitée ne mettent pas en évidence de traces de toxines algales.”
How high are PFAS levels in Pleurtuit's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 9.8 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 10 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Pleurtuit 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 3.4 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 Pleurtuit's tap water?
No clear trend. Since 18 February 2025, 5 checks have been published; on the main network the PFAS-4 sum ranged between 1.75 ng/L and 2.54 ng/L (3 quantified values), at times below the detection limit. pfasnearme only reports a trend from a change of at least 25 % and 1 ng/L. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.
How hard is the water in Pleurtuit?
The water hardness in Pleurtuit is 17.2 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
