The Ironhouse Sanitary District announced the opening of the Recycled Water Fill Station for the 2026 summer season was on April 6, 2026.
- Hours of Operation:
- Monday–Friday, 6:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
- Closed weekends and public holidays

Since its closure in May 2023, the station has undergone several upgrades and improvements including pressurizing and increasing the pipe size to 8” in diameter for better water flows, as well as adding signage and making the station more user-friendly. These upgrades allow Ironhouse to continue offering high-quality recycled water for outdoor watering needs while preserving drinking water and saving its customers money.
The Recycled Water Fill Station opened in 2015 to provide City of Oakley and Bethel Island residents with free recycled water. Customers can dispense up to 300 gallons of water per visit for personal use including watering trees, gardens, and vegetables, as well as lawn irrigation, washing cars, cleaning outdoor furniture, and washing hard surfaces.
Recycled water can be used for:
- Watering your trees
- Gardens
- Vegetables
- Lawn irrigation
- Washing your car
- Cleaning outdoor furniture
- Washing Hard surfaces (paths, walls, windows, etc.)
Recycled water is NOT suitable for:
- Drinking
- Cooking or use in the kitchen
- Bathing or showering
- Filling swimming pools or spas
- Children’s water toys
- Plumbing to the household domestic plumbing system
Before taking home recycled water, customers must complete a sign-up process that includes filling out a Resident Recycled Water Fill Station Agreement form and attending a brief 15-minute training. Additionally, customers located outside the service area can pay a $35 annual fee to gain access to Ironhouse’s recycled water. Ironhouse produces 2.6 million gallons of water daily, using a modern filtration and ultra-violet light process that uses zero chemicals. This high-quality treated water preserves the region’s water supply.
The Residential Recycled Water Fill station is located near Ironhouse’s headquarters in Oakley at 450 Walnut Meadows Drive.
