Drinking water quality in Saint-Grégoire
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.001 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 1 % of the limit. (14 October 2025)
The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0.0005 µg/L, below the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026.
One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).
Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Saint-Grégoire safe to drink?
Yes. The latest official test (13 April 2026) checked the tap water in Saint-Grégoire and it passed every requirement.
How high are PFAS levels in Saint-Grégoire's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.001 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 1 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Saint-Grégoire also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
Yes. Even against Europe's strictest limit, the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026, the measured value of 0.0005 µg/L stays below.
How hard is the water in Saint-Grégoire?
The water hardness in Saint-Grégoire is 16 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
