FRISCO, TEXAS - If you’ve ever stood in your yard wondering why the sprinkler schedule feels confusing, you’re not alone. Frisco’s seasonal watering rules are designed to conserve water and help residents save on their water bill, but many residents admit the rules are hard to remember. Here’s Frisco's watering schedule simplified with the current rules and how to stay in compliance.
Frisco's Watering Schedule : Once Per Week
Frisco requires homeowners to water lawns once per week, and your assigned day matches your trash/recycling day.
Example:
If your garbage day is Wednesday, then Wednesday is also your watering day.
You may hand-water plants and trees any day, but sprinkler systems must follow the correlating schedule.
The Big Time Block: No 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.
No matter what day you’re assigned, sprinkler systems cannot run between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. The city enforces this as water evaporates fastest during midday heat, saving Frisco residents the hastle of watering for no reason.
Seasonal Adjustments
Frisco uses a seasonal schedule to match irrigation with the city’s water supply and North Texas weather patterns. During summer months, restrictions are stricter, while during the winter and fall, the schedule is less regimented. The city updates its Water Efficiency page each season to remind residents of the rules.
Enforcement & Fines
Yes, there is enforcement. The city’s Water Resources Division actively monitors Frisco's neighborhoods, issuing warnings and fines for violations. Repeat offenders risk higher penalties. Residents can find the full enforcement policy on the City of Frisco website.
A Fridge-Worthy Shortcut
Here’s the simplest way to remember Frisco’s watering rules:
1 day per week : Your garbage day
No watering : 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Hand-watering : Any day, Any time
Check city updates each season
Bottom line: Frisco’s watering rules may sound confusing, so here is a simple framework: Once per Week, Outside Midday Hours, and Aligned with Trash Pickup. Following the schedule saves water, saves residents money, prevents fines, and keeps lawns healthy year-round.
