PFAS in drinking water

26× above our health benchmark

Amount found in the water 13 ng/L 0.013 µg/L · the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4)
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

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 Montagny, on the same distribution network as Taluyers (MILLERY MORNANT PRINCIPALE). 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.

Substances below the detection limit count as 0, so the real total may be higher.

One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).

In Taluyers, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 13 ng/L (0.013 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 27 April 2026. That's 26 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 48 ng/L (0.048 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Montagny, on the same network. 5 checks since 12 September 2025: PFAS-4 from 13 ng/L to 22 ng/L, averaging 17.4 ng/L over 12 months. No clear trend.

PFAS over time in Taluyers

32 PFAS checks since 7 March 2023, from the published measurements. Samples from 10 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Taluyers.

“Calculated”: PFAS-4 worked out from the four substances in the same sample. The chart, averages and trends use lab-published sums only.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Taluyers safe to drink?

Yes. At the check on 27 April 2026, the tap water in Taluyers was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”

How high are PFAS levels in Taluyers's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 48 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 48 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Taluyers also meet the strictest limits in Europe?

No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 13 ng/L. That is 3.3 times Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L, in force since 2026. Germany will set a similar one in 2028. The water still passes the current EU legal limit (100 ng/L for the total of 20 PFAS).

Are PFAS levels rising in Taluyers's tap water?

No clear trend. Since 7 March 2023, 5 checks have been published; on the main network the PFAS-4 sum ranged between 13 ng/L and 22 ng/L (5 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 Taluyers?

The water hardness in Taluyers is 21.5 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.

Where does this data come from?

All values come from official publications: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM). Retrieved on 12 September 2026.

Same water network

Same distribution network as Taluyers, so in principle the same water.
