Hardness, nitrates, pH, sanitary compliance: the real tap water quality in Saint-Lunaire (moderately hard water), with official Hub'Eau data updated monthly.
✓ Compliant with sanitary standardsSaint-Lunaire water reaches 17.7°f — a moderate level reflecting local geology. Limescale is visible on shower glass and taps but has no impact on sanitary water quality. Standard dishwasher tablets, regular regenerating salt and periodic coffee maker descaling are the only routine precautions needed. Official sanitary tests declare it compliant with current standards across all monitored parameters.

Sanitary compliance summarises adherence to French regulatory limits across all analysed parameters (bacteriology, chemistry, radioactivity). Compliant water can be consumed directly from the tap without additional treatment.
The TH (titre hydrotimétrique) measures calcium and magnesium concentration, expressed in French degrees (°f). The higher it is, the harder the water and the faster limescale deposits on surfaces and in appliances.
Nitrates come mainly from agriculture and waste water. The French regulatory limit is 50 mg/L; below 25 mg/L, the level is considered low.
PFAS are persistent chemical compounds, sometimes called "forever chemicals", used in industry. The vigilance threshold used here is 0.1 µg/L, consistent with current health recommendations.
pH measures water acidity. Regulations require a value between 6.5 and 9: outside this range, water may encourage pipe corrosion or affect taste.
Free chlorine is added to disinfect water and prevent bacterial growth in the distribution network. High levels can produce a perceptible taste or odour, without health risk at authorised levels.
Turbidity measures water clarity, in NTU (nephelometric turbidity units). A low value indicates clear water with few suspended particles.
Conductivity reflects overall water mineralisation, in µS/cm. It has no strict sanitary threshold but indicates the dissolved mineral salt content.
Maintenance budget: ~£50/year
For 2 persons, water at 17.7°f deposits around 0.8 kg of limescale per year in your appliances. Estimated cost in descalers, salt and filters.
Calcium: ~28 mg per litre
Your water provides 28 mg of calcium/L, which is 3% of the recommended daily intake.
Filter jug: cartridge every 7 months
At 17.7°f, replace the cartridge every 7 months. An under-sink filter lasts 6 to 12 months.

Top 10 cities in the Ille-et-Vilaine department ranked by tap water quality in our database.
Saint-Lunaire ranks 50th out of 113 cities in the department in our database.
Tap water in Saint-Lunaire has a quality index of 5.5/10 (average quality) in our database, calculated on nitrates, PFAS, pH, free chlorine and turbidity. This is a comparative reading of Hub'Eau data, not an official rating.
Tap water hardness in Saint-Lunaire is 17.7°f (French degrees), making it moderately hard water. The average is 16.9°f in the Ille-et-Vilaine department and 22.1°f across our entire database.
Moderately. At 17.7°f, water in Saint-Lunaire is moderately hard: limescale traces appear over time on surfaces that aren't wiped down, but not a daily problem with regular maintenance.
Not necessarily. At 17.7°f, regular antiscale maintenance is often sufficient; a softener is worth considering mainly if deposits become bothersome daily.
Yes. In the last available official sanitary analysis (11 June 2026), water distributed in Saint-Lunaire was declared compliant, meaning it can be drunk directly from the tap. This is a point-in-time sample, not real-time monitoring.
The pH measured in Saint-Lunaire is 8.1. Regulations require a value between 6.5 and 9: the water is within this range.
Compare tap water quality in other cities of the Ille-et-Vilaine department, ranked by quality index.
Methodology: the quality index compares each city against the 4806 other cities in our database on 5 parameters (nitrates, PFAS, pH, free chlorine, turbidity) and averages its relative position on each. This is not an official rating, only a simplified comparative reading of Hub’Eau data.
