Drinking water in Altenglan
2 supply zones — values can differ depending on the district. Below is the zone with the most documented parameters, the others collapsed underneath. To determine the exact match, look up the postcode.
How to read the share of the parametric value
Several samples per year: for chemical parameters the mean value is given, for microbiological ones the highest measured value. There the parametric value is zero — a single finding would disappear in the average, and it is precisely that finding which is the information. Which reference applies is stated in the last column of the table.

Frequently asked questions about drinking water in Altenglan
- How much nitrate is in the drinking water in Altenglan?
- TWIST RLP - ÜG-HB Oberstaufenbach (VGW Altenglan)(WW),TW publishes a nitrate value of 23 mg/L for the supply zone ÜG-HB Oberstaufenbach (VGW Altenglan)(WW),TW. The statutory parametric value is 50 mg/l; the measured value represents 46 % of the parametric value. Basis: Publication by the water supplier, retrieved on 13/07/2026.
- Are PFAS detectable in the drinking water in Altenglan?
- TWIST RLP - ÜG-HB Oberstaufenbach (VGW Altenglan)(WW),TW publishes for the supply zone ÜG-HB Oberstaufenbach (VGW Altenglan)(WW),TW a sum value PFAS-20 below the limit of quantification (entry in the report: "< 0.01 µg/L"). This is not to be read as "PFAS-free": below the limit of quantification, the measurement cannot make any statement. The statutory parametric value is 0.1 µg/l; the measured value lies below it and cannot be specified more precisely below the limit of quantification. For the sum of the 20 individual substances, this parametric value has applied since 12/01/2026. Basis: Publication by the water supplier, retrieved on 13/07/2026.
- Who supplies the drinking water in Altenglan?
- TWIST RLP - ÜG-HB Oberstaufenbach (VGW Altenglan)(WW),TW. The values shown here come from the supply zone ÜG-HB Oberstaufenbach (VGW Altenglan)(WW),TW and apply to the water the supplier delivers. What happens between the building connection and the tap — in old lead pipes, for example — is not covered by these analyses; information on that is provided by owners, the health authority or an examination by an accredited laboratory.
