PFAS in Saint-Féliu-d'Amont's tap water: under 24 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 24 ng/L, 48 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 to 10 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 24 ng/L rather than zero.

In Saint-Féliu-d'Amont, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 9 December 2025. The total is below 24 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 48 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <0,002 µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 5 checks since 8 July 2025, sum of 20 PFAS always below the detection limit (2 ng/L).

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Saint-Féliu-d'Amont safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 1 July 2026, the tap water in Saint-Féliu-d'Amont was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité.”
How high are PFAS levels in Saint-Féliu-d'Amont's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 2 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 2 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Saint-Féliu-d'Amont 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 24 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 Saint-Féliu-d'Amont'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 Saint-Féliu-d'Amont?
The water hardness in Saint-Féliu-d'Amont is 13 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
