Irrigation in The Villages

Homes in The Villages don't all get their irrigation water the same way. According to The Villages Community Development Districts, homes north of CR 466 irrigate with potable (drinking) water, homes south of CR 466 mostly use stormwater, and homes south of SR 44 use a mix of reclaimed water and stormwater.

That matters for your system. Stormwater and reclaimed water carry more sand, silt and algae than city water, so nozzles and valves clog faster. If you live in the newer villages and your heads keep clogging, a sediment filter and regular maintenance make a real difference.

What we see most

Common sprinkler problems in The Villages

Heads buried by St. Augustine

Mature St. Augustine lawns grow over spray heads within a season or two. We raise and level them, and sprinkler rings keep them that way.

Clogged nozzles on non-potable water

Stormwater and reclaimed lines bring in sediment that clogs nozzles and leaves dry spots.

Timers set wrong after a power outage or a schedule change

When watering rules change, controllers need to be reprogrammed. We can set yours to the current schedule.

Golf cart and mower damage

Heads near cart paths and driveways get clipped and cracked. We replace them and can add rings for protection.

Watering rules in The Villages

Watering days in The Villages depend on your village, address or lot number and the time of year, and are published by the Community Development Districts. The District has had a water shortage schedule in place in 2026, so check the District's current schedule before changing your timer.

Right now: Homes on the Sumter and Marion County side water one day a week under a Southwest Florida Water Management District water shortage order through March 31, 2027. Your day depends on the last digit of your house number, and watering is allowed 12:01 to 4 a.m. or 8 to 11:59 p.m. Homes on the Lake County side water one day a week under a Phase III water shortage order. Odd-numbered addresses water Saturday, even-numbered addresses Sunday, before 8 a.m. or after 6 p.m.
