Drinking water quality in Munster
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,005 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (2 April 2025)
This source does not list each PFAS substance separately, so we cannot compare this water with the health limit.

Official assessment
The latest official test passed all quality requirements.
„Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité. Teneur en perchlorates supérieure aux seuils définis par l'ANSES dans ses avis des 18 juillet 2011 et 20 juillet 2012 : Entre 4 et 15 µg/l de perchlorates, ne pas préparer de biberons pour les nourrissons de moins de 6 mois. Eau douce, très faiblement minéralisée, agressive, susceptible, dans certaines conditions défavorables (stagnation de l'eau notamment) de dissoudre certains métaux des canalisations.“

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Munster safe to drink?
Yes. The latest official test (17 June 2026) checked the tap water in Munster and it passed every requirement.
How high are PFAS levels in Munster's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <0,005 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
How hard is the water in Munster?
The water hardness in Munster is 5 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
