Rainwater harvesting is encouraged in Jupiter and requires no permit for residential rain barrels up to 55 gallons. Cisterns over 100 gallons or plumbed to indoor fixtures require a plumbing permit and backflow prevention.
Florida Building Code and FL DEP support rainwater catchment for irrigation. SFWMD provides rebates and workshops. Harvested rainwater may be used for landscape irrigation without SFWMD watering-schedule restrictions. Connection to potable plumbing prohibited; non-potable cisterns must be clearly labeled. HOAs in Abacoa and Admirals Cove may have aesthetic rules on barrel placement.
Contact your local code enforcement office for specific penalty information.
