Denver Water Implements 2026 Water Use Program
Denver Water has implemented its 2026 Water Use Program, which Lakehurst Water and Sanitation District, as a contract distributor, has reaffirmed and is legally obligated to follow and enforce.
Effective May 1 to April 30, 2027, customers may water no more than two days per week and must adhere to the watering rules laid out below.
- Water during cooler times of the day - lawn watering is NOT allowed between 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
- Water only on your assigned two days per week.
- Do not waste water by allowing it to pool on sidewalks, gutters, or streets.
- Do not apply more water than is necessary to establish and maintain a healthy landscape.
- Turn your irrigation system off when it rains and during high winds.
- Make repairs to irrigation systems in a timely manner and adjust sprinkler heads appropriately.
- Use a hose nozzle with a shut-off valve when washing your car.

2026 Consumer Confidence Report (Water Quality Report) is Available on Denver Water's Website
Each year the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) mandates that all public water systems provide their customers with a water quality update called the Consumer Confidence Report (CCR).
Since Lakehurst operates under a contract with Denver Water, it is Denver Water's duty to monitor and report on the quality of our treated water.
The CCR from Denver contains information regarding water quality regulations as well as recent testing results and evaluations.
District customers may access the report on Denver Water's website - https://www.denverwater.org/your-water/water-quality/water-quality-reports to view the CCR, or call the District office - 303-985-7895 - or Denver Water - 303-628-6000 - with questions. If you want a paper copy of the 2026 report, there are some available in our office.
Sprinkler Systems
There are two basic types of sprinkler heads, pop-ups and rotors.
- Pop-up spray heads deliver 1.5 to 2 inches of water per hour in a fan-shaped spray, or sometimes in a full-circle spray.
- Rotor spray heads deliver about a half inch of water per hour in a rotating jet of water.
Pop-up systems that spray a steady fan of water can water four times as fast as rotor systems. Most soils in Denver can absorb about a half-inch of water per hour. If the soil is getting too much water too fast, water will run off and be wasted.
Lawn Watering Times
How to cycle and soak your lawn with these suggested watering times during drought
One of the best ways to water your lawn efficiently is to cycle and soak. Watering in increments gives soil time to soak up the necessary water and allows water to travel further into the soil where the grass roots are, creating a healthier lawn.
Using the scheduling features on an irrigation controller, add multiple start times and reduce each zone's watering time. Allow for up to an hour between start times to allow for the last cycle of irrigation to soak into the soil. Water, rest, water.
Use this chart as a starting point. Actual watering needs vary based on weather, soil type, sun exposure and plant health, so adjust as needed.

Smart Sprinkler System Controller
Save water by adding a smart irrigation controller. Like a thermostat for your sprinkler system, it
automatically adjusts watering schedules by determining when your system should turn on and off based on conditions.
During Stage 1 Drought Restrictions: Smart irrigation controllers may run no more than 2 days per week and must not operate between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Because some controllers rely on local weather data and may attempt to operate more frequently, they must be programmed to comply with these limits.
