Lubbock's water shows about 235 parts per million hardness from Lake Meredith and wells, while other local wells reach near 600 ppm. The saltier lake water promotes rusting of metal and galvanic corrosion in mixed piping, with copper pipes safer than galvanized. The city can move over 100 million gallons daily, storing 300 million gallons underground, and reuses excess lake water when not needed.
