Anyone have experience with the flow meter not reporting back good data?

I turn my return pump down to 10% and it reads 200 gph, i turn it up to 100% and it reads 225.

checking with the bucket, theres a considerable difference in flow

I dunno but I think my Par meter is way off... probably needs to be updated.

My flow meter as well slowed down until finally it’s at zero. I tried cleaning it but that didn’t work so I bought a new one.

i just installed mines last night. I heard about it slowly failing from other people, but ive never heard people complaining about it just reporting wrong numbers.

I guess i should reach out to apex to see what they say.
