In terms of installation and mounting, one of the most versatile flumes is the H Flume. 

The flumes are suscessfully used in: 

• Above grade
• At grade
• Below grade
• And manhole installations

This versatality in installation, combined with a wide range of styles and sizes, make the H flume one of the most popular flumes to meausre water and wastewater flows.

The wide range of mounting possibilities, can, however, lead to some confusion. With that in mind, we present below a series of different H flume installations to help installers see what configuraitons have worked in other applications in the past.
