Same Day Service Available
Did you know that over 70% of the world’s freshwater goes toward irrigation? Pasco County and its municipalities created watering days to help conserve water and protect our environment. To achieve this, residents must follow a schedule and some basic rules. Your watering days depend on your water source (reclaimed, well, lake, or pond) and address. By following these simple rules, Pasco County residents can contribute to a sustainable water future.
What type of water do I have?
In Florida, residents can access reclaimed, potable, and well water. If you are unsure what type of water your address has, contact your local municipality for more information. For further details about each water type, continue reading below:
Reclaimed Water
Reclaimed water is highly treated wastewater collected from local sewer systems. It’s an alternative water source that helps us conserve freshwater. Reclaimed water is reused for irrigation, wetland restoration, and preventing saltwater intrusion in Southwestern Florida.
Potable Water
Potable water meets rigorous quality standards and is safe for human consumption. It comes from rivers, groundwater, and sometimes, desalinated seawater. However, the specific definition and standards for potable water can vary by county and local utility departments.
Well Water
Lastly, well water is drawn from underground aquifers and may require additional treatment depending on its quality. Well water can become contaminated by chemicals and bacteria, so it’s very important to have it tested at least once a year.
