City of Largo, Florida

It's a fact that all water on Earth is recycled. But when we hear the term "recycled" or "reclaimed water" it means wastewater that has been sent from homes and businesses through a sewer system to a wastewater facility where it is treated and made available for use in irrigation, industrial cooling, or dust control.

The City of Largo and the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) have teamed to fund a system to distribute reclaimed water to households and businesses for the purpose of watering lawns and commercial properties. While not available everywhere, those residents who use reclaimed water save money and reduce their ecological footprint. To find out if reclaimed water is available in your neighborhood, call 727-518-3076
