Flow rate

[Shadow_Storm56]

What's a good way to monitor flow rate? onice all the bubbles are gone everything kinda looks stopped even when it's high flow. I'm looking for simple ways not fancy flow monitors. thanks.

Yeah, I think flow indicator is the better term

Drop one piece of glitter into your water and count how long it takes to make it around.... jk, please don't.

 

Flow indicator or flow sensor are really your only options

When I added coolant mix it blasted through fast

I wouldn't worry about it much then. Flowrate doesn't have a huge performance impact as long as you're above .6-.7 gpm. Just a few degrees is all. 

 

What're your loop specs?
