Nashville Watering Schedule and Lawn Care
Metro Water Services’ published guidance is a voluntary peak-demand request dated August 28, 2024.
Controller setup
Use Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for an odd-numbered address, or Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday for an even-numbered address. Keep the schedule at no more than three days weekly and use the requested 7 p.m. to 4 a.m. period.

University of Tennessee Extension recommends morning irrigation for fescue to reduce how long leaves stay wet. Metro Water Services’ overnight request addresses pumping demand. These are different objectives from different authorities.
