1. What are my watering days if I have reclaimed water?

For reclaimed customers the following schedule remains in effect year round:

1. Detached single family units where meters are not required are permitted to irrigate:
   • Odd addresses: Wednesday and Saturday before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m.
   • Even addresses: Thursday and Sunday before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m.
2. Multifamily units, office, commercial, public, industrial and warehousing facilities where a master meter is required are permitted to irrigate:
   • Tuesday and Friday before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m.

2. When can I irrigate if I don’t have reclaimed service?

If you do not use reclaimed water for irrigation, watering days are determined by the St. John’s River Water Management District and are reduced to one day a week during Eastern Standard Time. Please see the Irrigation Schedule on the SJRWMD website.

3. Why is the pressure in my reclaimed system lower during the day?
