    I have had my B-Hyve Smart Outdoor Timer about six months and in looking at my zone settings in the B-Hyve app I finally started attention to the ‘flow sensor data’ settings in the ‘Zone Detail’ section.
    Does anyone know where I can find information about this topic, including manufacturer recommended settings? Thanks!

    The Flume 2 is the only flowmeter that I know of which is integrated with B-hyve. It reads the meter clicks from your water meter at a detail that doesn’t show on the meter display. Flume cloud software differentiates the different types of water usage. It connects the flow rate changes when starting and stopping sprinkling.
    It sits on top of the meter with no plumbing needed.
    The only drawback is the cost, $230 on Amazon.

    I have a Flume 2 installed and have linked it the B-Hyve controller. Unfortunately, this was done after the end of the irrigation season here. There is very little detail in the app to confirm the connection or to tell me that it is actually working. My hope is that it will allow for the direct measurement of the application rate and account for flow differences due to water pressure variations or other factors. I would love to hear about anyone’s experience with this.
