Finally you can wash your car again as the rules have been changed. Since the rules can change pleaseĀ  visit the SwiftMud website here. They make the rules.**

Fountains

  • Aesthetic fountains and other water features may only operate four hours per day. The regular hours of operation can be selected by the owner, but must be posted. However, small indoor and backyard fountains may operate eight hours a day.

Car Washing

  • Car washing is limited to once per week and fundraiser events are allowed. Car washing at residential properties is only allowed on certain days: even-numbered addresses may wash only on Tuesday or Saturday; odd-numbered addresses may wash only on Wednesday or Sunday.

Pressure Washing

  • Pressure washing is allowed for necessary purposes, which include cleaning prior to painting or sealing, maintaining a paint or material warranty, addressing a health or safety hazard and complying with local, state or federal health laws. Aesthetic concerns, even those raised by an HOA in accordance with its deed restrictions, do not constitute a “necessary” purpose.

Water-based air conditioning

  • Government facilities, common areas in malls, lobbies of multi-tenant office buildings and similar public spaces using cooling towers or other water-based cooling are no longer required to keep the temperature at or above 78 degrees Fahrenheit.

** Always check with the local authority as rules are constantly changing and as of this date this is what was published.
