Don't run more than 15 gpm through the 5/8 meter. There are two flow ranges. Continuous Duty, and Maximum flow rate. If you go near to maxing out the flow on a meter, it can get noisy, and you get to live with the noise.I have a Neptune 5/8" meter (model T10) which is rated at 150psi and a normal operating rangeof 1/2 to 20 gpm. So looks like this bad boy could handle 18 gpm. Besides if it wears out, isn't that on the water company since I was operating within the normal range? Also looked into larger meter. They are willing to do it but a 3/4 inch is about 5-10 dollars more per month. Not gonna bankrupt me, but why upgrade if the 5/8 can handle 18 gpm?

Does anyone have an opinion on the $10 orbit water pressure gauge at that orange store?
