I have a chlorinator system headed my way with a contact tank. Is a flow rate meter a good idea to help me set the right chlorination level for my daily use versus contact tank capacity? My well is in an area with several commercial chicken producers and I will have a rainwater backup to my well water. I should note that my rainwater catchment will have a diverter to catch the initial dirt and bird dropping runoff before it fills up and diverts into my 'cistern' storage tank.
I would like to reduce my chlorination level to the lowest reasonable setting so, I am thinking a flow rate meter is a good idea. Googling a little bit and searching this forum left me without a good resolution as to whether a flow rate meter is a good idea and if so, which one to get (reasonable cost, reasonable quality, reasonably accurate).
I am willing to pay for quality if that is really required but, I'm not opposed to using a cheaper meter if it will serve my needs. Specific meter models or brands to seek or avoid would be appreciated.
TIA,
Sid
