El Paso watering rules in force right now

El Paso Water allows landscape watering up to three times a week, year-round, on days set by your address. Even-numbered addresses water Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday. Odd-numbered addresses water Wednesday, Friday or Sunday. No residential watering on Mondays. From 1 April to 30 September, watering is only permitted before 10 a.m. or after 6 p.m.

El Paso Water is explicit that three times a week is the ceiling, not the target: “The Conservation Ordinance allows for three times per week watering, but it is often better to water less frequently.”

Desert Landscaping rebuilds a property around Chihuahuan Desert-adapted planting and a zone layout that works on three watering days. Drip Irrigation puts water at the root line instead of into the air, which is the single most direct way to stay clear of the overspray and runoff rule. It also covers the leak repairs the ordinance requires inside five working days.

Artificial Turf removes irrigated area outright, which moves your summer volume down the AWC tiers. Tree Trimming handles structural pruning, deadwood and clearance, with debris hauled off. Yard Cleanup covers seasonal clearing and ongoing bed care. Commercial Landscaping applies the same written-project process to offices, HOAs, retail centres and industrial sites, which run on the Monday, Wednesday or Friday schedule rather than the residential even/odd assignment.

Three things drive what works in an El Paso yard: a Chihuahuan Desert climate, caliche in the soil profile, and a watering ordinance with real enforcement behind it. A plan that ignores any of them fails slowly and expensively.

The ordinance defines four things as wasting water. Most summaries stop at the day schedule. The El Paso Water Conservation Ordinance goes further and prohibits four separate uses:

  • Watering on the wrong day or at the wrong time. Watering off-schedule is itself the violation, whether or not water is visibly wasted.
  • Allowing water to flow into the public right of way or the storm drainage system. This is the overspray and runoff rule. One misaimed head triggers it.
  • Failing to repair a leak within five working days of discovering it.
  • Washing down impervious surfaces outside an emergency.

Any of the four can bring a Class C Municipal Notice of Violation, with fines from $50 to $500 per citation. That is why head aim, zone boundaries and leak response are design decisions here, not maintenance details.

Your winter bill sets your summer irrigation rate. El Paso Water prices irrigation against your own Average Winter Consumption – the average of your December, January and February billing periods. Effective with meter readings taken after 1 March 2026, the minimum monthly charge for a meter under one inch is $11.82 and includes a 5 CCF allowance. Volume above that costs $3.92 per CCF up to 150% of your AWC, $9.26 per CCF from 150% to 250%, and $13.24 per CCF above 250%. The top tier is more than three times the first.

The consequence is counter-intuitive and it is real: a household that uses less water in winter pays more to irrigate the same lawn in July, because its tier boundaries sit lower. That is why irrigation design here is judged on where it lands you in the tiers, not just on coverage.

Why El Paso Property Owners Choose El Paso Lawn and Landscape

A plan that holds up locally differs from one that does not in three respects.

  • The plan is written before anything is priced. project, materials, plant selection, irrigation zoning and exclusions are set out in writing. You approve the project and the price before work begins.
  • The ordinance is designed for, not worked around. Zone boundaries, head aim and controller programming are set against the even/odd day assignment and the April to September hour limits, so the finished system is compliant as installed.
  • The guidance behind the plan is published, not asserted. Every rule and rate quoted here links to El Paso Water, so you can check it yourself.

Work is carried out for both homeowners and businesses – single-family properties through to offices, HOAs, retail centres and industrial sites. To compare approaches before deciding, see how to choose a landscaper in El Paso.

Plan around the property for Budget Inputs in Property Planning

There is no flat rate. Every El Paso property prices differently, so each one is quoted on site. These are the drivers that move your number the most:

  • Lot size, terrain and access: total area, slope, and how easily equipment reaches the work.
  • Soil profile: caliche depth decides how much excavation and amendment a planting or hardscape bed needs before anything goes in.
  • Irrigation condition and zoning: existing coverage gaps, head aim and controller capability, judged against a three-day watering week.
  • Turf and plant selection: desert-adapted planting, turf reduction and artificial turf all shift both install cost and the water bill that follows.
  • Regulatory constraints: the watering schedule and the four prohibited uses shape zone design, not just the run times.
  • Ongoing water cost: where your AWC tier boundaries fall decides what the finished landscape costs to run each summer.

How the El Paso project detail becomes a project plan

Below is the sequence from first contact through to an agreed project plan, so you know what happens before you make contact.

You send the form or call. Tell us the property and the service you are considering. Add anything already troubling you: runoff onto the sidewalk, a zone that will not hold pressure, bare ground where turf failed.

Plan around the property for property details 8 in Property Planning

The property is assessed against what drives cost here. Caliche depth and grade. Sun exposure and wind. Access for equipment. The state of any existing irrigation, and whether its current aim would trip the runoff rule.

Plan around the property for project details in Property Planning

The work is set out in writing. What is included, the materials and plant selection, how irrigation will be zoned against your assigned watering days, and what is excluded. You read the project before any price is agreed.

The estimate is priced against that project plan. project and price are agreed in writing before work begins. Every visit finishes with the agreed work complete and debris hauled off site.

What to look for in any El Paso landscaping project

Whichever company you ask, a complete project plan should answer each of these without you having to call back:

  • Named plants and materials – species and sizes, not “shrubs” or “rock”.
  • Irrigation detail – which zones change, what hardware is replaced, and how run times fit three watering days inside the permitted hours.
  • Caliche and site preparation – excavation, backfill and amendment stated separately, because that is where the cost sits.
  • What is excluded – written down, so two quotes compare on the same basis.

What should an El Paso whole-property landscape planning walkthrough trace before materials are chosen?

Trace where water enters, where it runs and where it collects; then note reflected heat, shade, irrigation reach and equipment access. Those observations define the working limits for whole-property landscape planning without pretending an unseen area has already been diagnosed.

How are heat and runoff handled in El Paso whole-property landscape planning planning?

Heat exposure and runoff are recorded by zone, not averaged across the yard. The plan can then place preparation, materials and irrigation decisions beside the condition they answer, leaving unrelated areas outside the project.

What remains undecided until an El Paso property is inspected?

Subsurface condition, usable irrigation pressure, drainage direction and access constraints should stay unresolved until they are checked on site. A responsible whole-property landscape planning proposal labels those unknowns and explains how each could affect the work.
