While I could easily be wrong, I know of no filtration systems being offered in The Villages to handle the irrigation water. By the way, the outside spigots for hoses pass the potable water, NOT the non-potable water.

To clarify:
Some of the older houses use potable water for irrigation. They don't have separate water lines.
Also, you can buy a filter for the irrigation line, mostly to filter out dirt and grit that can clog the sprinkler nozzles.
