New left knee Wednesday at 8am, home Thursday at noon. How soon can I go back in the water?

When you doctor says you can. Probably when the incision is dry, the stitches/staples have been removed, and the incision stays dry for a couple of days. This eliminates the risk of infection. (Per instructions that I received for a similar joint procedure).
