Drinking water quality in Valencisse
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (25 March 2025)
The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0 µg/L, below the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026.
Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.
12 PFAS (see each substance)

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Valencisse safe to drink?
Yes. The latest official test (2 April 2026) checked the tap water in Valencisse and it passed every requirement.
How high are PFAS levels in Valencisse's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Valencisse 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 µg/L stays below.
How hard is the water in Valencisse?
The water hardness in Valencisse is 17 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
