PFAS in Pomport'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.
Sample taken in Saint-Laurent-des-Vignes, on the same distribution network as Pomport (SIGOULES CABANES). The health authority samples one tap per network; a network carries the same treated water everywhere.
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 to 2 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 6 ng/L rather than zero.

In Pomport, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 4 February 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: <SEUIL µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Saint-Laurent-des-Vignes, on the same network. 2 checks since 28 July 2025, sum of 20 PFAS always below the detection limit.

PFAS over time in Pomport
2 PFAS checks since 28 July 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 | Sampled at |
|---|---|---|---|
| < detection limit | < detection limit | Saint-Laurent-des-Vignes | |
| < 6 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | Saint-Laurent-des-Vignes |
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
What the latest check found
At the latest check, the water was within every limit tested.
Values to watch
These results are close to their legal limit, or over it.
Outside a reference value: Iron 290 µg/L on 19 March 2026 (reference ≤ 200 µg/L), Turbidity 2.5 NFU on 19 March 2026 (reference ≤ 2 NFU). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Pomport safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 19 March 2026, the tap water in Pomport was within every limit tested. Outside a reference value: Iron 290 µg/L on 19 March 2026 (reference ≤ 200 µg/L), Turbidity 2.5 NFU on 19 March 2026 (reference ≤ 2 NFU). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité. Des mesures correctives ont été demandé à l 'exploitant. Le résultat de l'autocontrôle est conforme.”
How high are PFAS levels in Pomport'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 Pomport 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 Pomport'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 Pomport?
The water hardness in Pomport is 15.5 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
