PFAS in Roncey's tap water: under 4 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 4 ng/L, 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 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 4 ng/L rather than zero.

In Roncey, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 28 April 2026. The total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 8 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <SEUIL µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 5 checks since 3 March 2025, sum of 20 PFAS always below the detection limit.

Details and sources
PFAS over time in Roncey
5 PFAS checks since 3 March 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 2 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Roncey. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “RONCEY BOURG”.
“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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| < 4 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | Roncey | RONCEY BOURG | |
| < 4 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | Saint-Denis-le-Vêtu | RONCEY BOURG | |
| < 4 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | Roncey | 050000575 | |
| < 4 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | Saint-Denis-le-Vêtu | RONCEY BOURG | |
| < 6 ng/L · calculated | < detection limit | Roncey | 050000575 |
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 Roncey safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 2 June 2026, the tap water in Roncey was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites et références de qualité pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”
How high are PFAS levels in Roncey'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 Roncey 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 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 Roncey'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 Roncey?
The water hardness in Roncey is 13 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
