Water restrictions in Jupiter, FL — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Jupiter falls under the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) year-round landscape irrigation rule: 2 days per week, odd addresses Wednesday/Saturday and even Thursday/Sunday, no watering between 10 AM and 4 PM. Town enforces the rule with fines.
SFWMD Chapter 40E-24 sets the year-round mandatory rule for all Palm Beach County. During droughts, SFWMD may declare Phase I through IV restrictions cutting watering to 1 day per week or banning it entirely. Handheld hose watering with automatic shutoff and low-volume micro-irrigation are exempt from day restrictions. New landscape establishment allowed 60 days with permit. Reclaimed water users follow separate Loxahatchee River District rules.
Warning for first offense. 100 dollar fine second offense, up to 500 dollars for repeat violations. Drought-phase violations can trigger SFWMD enforcement.
