Flow refers to the volume of water moving through your pipe over time, measured in Gallons Per Minute (GPM). A flow meter is compatible with your system but not required.
To measure your flow:
Bring a 5-gallon bucket to your water source
Place it under the faucet and turn on the water (avoid frost-free faucets)
Record how long it takes to fill
If the bucket fills in under 45 seconds, you're within the recommended flow rate.
