Whole-home water usage from a clamp-on meter sensor
Connect your Flume water monitor to an online dashboard beta
Flume straps onto your existing water meter and tracks real usage. That is different from a leak detector: instead of waiting for a puddle, you can see how much water a household uses hour by hour and spot a running toilet or stuck irrigation valve from the pattern. SensorConsole charts Flume's usage next to your other sensors.
This connection is in beta: it is newer than our other integrations. If a reading does not come through, email sensorconsole@protonmail.com and we will sort it out.
