Drinking water quality in Frontonas
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,100 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (19 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.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Frontonas safe to drink?
All the values shown here (23 June 2026) are within the legal limits, but the authorities have not published an overall verdict for this water.
How high are PFAS levels in Frontonas's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,100 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 Frontonas 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 Frontonas?
The water hardness in Frontonas is 30.22 °f (hard). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
