FlowSniffer Pro

FlowSniffer Pro is a handheld diagnostic tool that connects to hose bibs and other outlets to measure water flow rate and compare it to expected pressure. It uses acoustic or pressure pulse technology to pinpoint the location and type of restriction (e.g., rust, crimp, failing PRV) without cutting into pipes. Plumbers get instant, actionable data to fix the right problem the first time.

Key Features
  • Quick-connect adapter for standard hose bibs and faucets
  • Real-time flow rate display vs. expected pressure
  • Acoustic/pulse detection to locate restriction distance and type
  • Save and share diagnostic reports with customers
Target Users: Residential and commercial service plumbers, especially those handling water pressure complaints.
Revenue Model: $299 one-time hardware purchase + $19/mo subscription for advanced analytics and report generation
