Improving Lompoc and Santa Ynez Valley Water With Custom Water Filtration and Softener Solutions for Every Budget

High-quality water does more than just taste great — from helping you stay more hydrated and healthy at home, to helping appliances, plumbing, and more stand the test of time — you’ll notice the better water difference right away.

Lompoc is fortunate enough to be able to rely on locally-sourced water — that means we don’t have to use the State Water Project to import or supplement water for the city and surrounding area. But even with these local water sources, there are plenty of ways water can, and often does, go wrong before it even gets to your tap.

Water Quality in Lompoc

The City of Lompoc’s source of supply is from ten groundwater wells. The annual production of clean drinking water for the City in 2023 was 1.23 billion gallons or 3.37 million gallons per day (MGD). The Lompoc Water Treatment Plant uses a conventional treatment process that includes disinfection, coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, and filtration. Originally constructed in 1964, with some enhancements and additions of filters, the production capability is approximately 10 MGD.

A few customers in Miguelito Canyon, including Santa Barbara County Miguelito Park, receive treated surface water from the Frick Springs treatment plant operated by the City of Lompoc. The water is collected from seven springs located in the upper hills of Miguelito Canyon and is treated using diatomaceous earth (DE) filtration and chlorine disinfection. Frick Springs water treatment plant must comply with the Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR). The annual production for Frick Springs was 2.88 million gallons, with a daily average of 7,900 gallons.

The water in Lompoc is considered hard, which you may notice by the residue left around your home's fixtures and glasses. Arsenic, selenium and nitrates can be found in the water. Emerging contaminants such as PFAS have become a concern for many homeowners across the country.
