Flume Water

Before Flume, homeowners had no means by which they could effectively measure their water use. Instead, they relied on monthly snapshots from their bill.

Inspired by the cycle of drought in California and broad-based messages from utilities asking them to save water, Flume’s founders created a solution that gives homeowners real-time insights: the Flume Smart Water Monitor and app. Flume empowers homeowners with a DIY solution that offers minute-by-minute use information, leak detection, and personalized water budgets.

Flume’s success with consumers has been noticed by water utilities, who faced by drought and increasingly unreliable water supplies are shifting their focus towards managing demand and end-use more thoughtfully. Flume collaborates with utilities to distribute the Flume Water Monitor to homeowners and provides utilities with analytics and aggregated water use data through an unique dashboard. This platform helps to create a more meaningful relationship between the utility and their customers, forecast demand, and optimize utility economics.
