PFAS in Thusy's tap water: under 4 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
None of the 4 most harmful 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 Thusy, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 9 February 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: 5 ng/L (0.005 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 2 checks since 15 October 2025, PFAS-4 always below the detection limit (4 ng/L).

PFAS over time in Thusy
3 PFAS checks since 7 April 2025, from the published measurements. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “THUSY-PRINCIPALE”.
“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 | Network |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 4 ng/L | 5 ng/L | THUSY-PRINCIPALE | |
| < 4 ng/L | 4 ng/L | THUSY-BORNACHON | |
| < 4 ng/L · calculated | 1 ng/L | THUSY-PRINCIPALE |
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 Thusy safe to drink?
At the latest check, the water was over at least one limit. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”
How high are PFAS levels in Thusy's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 5 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 5 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Thusy 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 Thusy's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (0 since 7 April 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.
How hard is the water in Thusy?
The water hardness in Thusy is 36.4 °f (hard). 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 21 September 2026.
