The flow indicator is a great help in controlling enema discomfort but still seeing that the solution is moving into your colon. I believe a much larger and complete colon fill can be obtained safely if you can actually see the water moving in the tube. You can see if it momentarily stops or even reverses direction.

Hello Eddy...
I have used a flow indicator; however, I've never found it to be of much use. My enema tubing has a reverse flow protection device therefore, an enema cannot flow back into my enema bags. This is a great way of making sure that your enema fluid does not go back into the bag thus contaminating it.
I tend to agree with you that seeing the solution flow into the rectum is helpful. I usually maintain constant flow by hanging the bag at about 30 inches above my anus. This makes for a comfortable flow that is not too rapid.

Hi George. I have a six quart pluss enema bag and I take large volume enemas frequently. Sometimes a series of several enemas in a session. My flow indicator tells me that the solution is running into my colon very slowly, hardly at all, but still filling me. I dont like cramps or sudden discomfort of any kind. But I do want a complete fill.The very slow inflow which I can see and therefore control, allows a more complete colon fill with no problem. The slower, the better enema I can take.
