Water Wise Rules apply
The Water Wise Rules are:
Watering, including with sprinklers and irrigation systems, is allowed
any day before 10 am and after 4 pm to avoid the heat of the day.
All hand held hoses must have a trigger nozzle.
No hosing of hard surfaces such as paths and driveways. Washing vehicles
is allowed.
Fire hoses may be used for fire fighting activities only.
The Water Wise Rules are simple, common sense actions that apply to all
Sydney Water customers in Sydney, the Illawarra and the Blue Mountains.
This includes residents, businesses, local councils and government
agencies.
Sydney Water encourages the community to use their common sense when
applying the Water Wise Rules. For example;
Wash your car on the lawn wherever possible. This will not only water
and fertilise your lawn but will also avoid stormwater pollution.
Avoid any form of outdoor hosing between 10 am and 4 pm to avoid the
heat of the day, when evaporation is high.
Use a broom to clean up leaves, grass clippings, dirt, dust or general
litter on paths or driveways instead of hosing.
