Hoselink Water Flow Meter

Measure how much water you use at the tap — for the garden, washing the car, filling tanks, or tracking daily usage. The Hoselink Water Flow Meter screws straight onto a standard outdoor tap and shows volume and flow on a clear digital display.

Fits ¾″ or 1″ taps (1″ adapter included — unscrew if you only need ¾″). Works with both 12mm and 18mm hose fittings.

What it measures

• Litres used — water for the current session
• Average litres per day — over a number of days
• Total litres — running total you can keep while resetting session litres
• Litres per minute — average flow rate

Counts up to 9999 L before rolling over.

Tips

• Needs at least ~20 psi to read accurately (high-mounted gravity tanks can work; low-pressure tanks usually won’t).
• Can be fitted at the end of the hose under a spray gun — install upside down in that setup.
