WATERING RESTRICTIONS

Wondering When You Are Allowed To Water?

Municipalities have different bylaws and restrictions, indicating the days and times you are allowed to water. If you own a well or pull water from the lake, these restrictions do not apply to you.


When we open your irrigation system, we program your timer so that it complies with your municipality’s regulations. If you are putting down new grass, plants, or flowers, it is always possible to contact your municipality to obtain a permit that will allow you to water every day for a certain period.


The following information may not be entirely accurate or may change over time. Irrigation VIP is not responsible for any ticket that may result from using this information. Always refer to your municipality’s website or give them a call to obtain the most recent info. However, to the best of our knowledge, this is the most up-to-date information as of the beginning of this year.
