The restrictions have been put in place following a review of water levels.
Areas impacted include Caragh Lake, Dooks, Aghadoe, Crohane, Barleymount, Ballyhar, Rockfield and parts of Fieries, Milltown and Listry.
Water levels will be reviewed each morning and updates provided to the community as necessary. Despite recent rainfall, the continued high demand has not allowed for reservoirs to fully replenish.

Speaking about conserving water, Uisce Éireann's Regional Operations Lead Oliver Harney said: “The restrictions are necessary due to continued high demand for water in the area. The restrictions allow reservoir levels to recover overnight and maintain a consistent supply of drinking water for customers during the day. I would ask that everyone in Kerry continues to play their part in ensuring there is enough water for everyone as we go through the summer.
"It is important that we all consider our water usage and look at simple yet impactful ways to conserve water. It can sometimes be difficult to know where to start, but even small changes can make a significant difference, for example, turning off the hose, avoiding power washing and checking for leaks on outdoor taps."
