Watering Restrictions

Seminole County Irrigation Schedule Now until Sunday, November 2, 2025.

These restrictions are mandatory in Seminole County, regardless of whether your water comes from a private well or city/county utility.

• No watering permitted between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. any day
• Water only twice per week:
  • Residential customers with odd street addresses may irrigate on Wednesday and Saturday.
  • Residential customers with even street addresses may irrigate on Thursday and Sunday.
  • Non-residential customers may irrigate on Tuesday and Friday, unless using reclaimed water.
  • Reclaimed water customers may irrigate two times per week year round.
  • Watering with a hand-held hose is permitted anytime, provided it is fitted with an automatic shutoff nozzle.

If you own an automatic lawn sprinkler system, you must have a rain sensor or switch installed to override the system when adequate rainfall occurs.

Sod or New Landscape Installation

If you are replacing sod or installing new landscaping and need to irrigate more than the restrictions allow, you must mail, email or deliver your current receipt for sod to:

waterconservation@seminolecountyfl.gov 

Water Conservation Section
500 W. Lake Mary Blvd.
Sanford, FL. 32773

After receiving the receipt for sod or landscape material, you may irrigate freely for an additional 30 days.
