Hello,
I had a gas engineer visit to disconnect a gas fire. However, he was stumped by the gas meter's regulator. He claimed to have never seen a setup like it. The engineer did not feel confident in disconnecting the gas supply to perform the job, so we didn't go ahead.
The engineer phoned...
Hello, I went to a job recently that had a smart meter in a mitras semi buried gas meter box. See pic attached. The meter outlet fitting is a factory made welded fitting that allows the meter outlet to line up with the outlet hole on the box. It is not something I had seen before and I was...
I am refurbing my bathroom & need to replace the dodgy main stopcock from the rising main. It is easily accessible and the job should be straightforward. I live in a first floor flat in a block of 6. When I contacted Yorkshire Water, to ask for a meter location, a rather shirty young man...
Can anyone recommend a decent multi meter, preferably under a 100 pounds. It's for checking boiler components so I don't need a top spec one ....just easy to use and reliable.
The fluke 115 looks good but its above my budget. My current socket and see one was great but it's developed a fault.
I wish to add a second boiler to my existing meter. Location 20m away. Underground run. Can l use 32mm yellow pipe with copper tails at each end. Thank you in advance
Had conventional boiler and tanks removed last year and new combi fitted and just recently had it serviced but the guy who did it has given me a gas warning notice for at risk as the outside wall meter box has been drilled through for the gas pipe to go horizontal straight to the boiler. The...
I live in Azerbaijan and am looking to revamp the water system in my house. The first thing is that I don't have a water meter - probably a good thing as my mother in law pours tonnes of water on the garden in summer, mostly watering weeds as she can't tell the difference from grass.
But the...
hi
i am currently moving home and i have been told by a plumber that the enc pipework into/out of this gas box would not pass a gas safety test. I have also been given a safety certificate to say that there is nothing wrong with the pipework. Can anyone advise
thanks
Should the small red triangle on meter continually be moving? Checked meter after hearing water noise in garage. Want to know if it’s a Sydney water issue or do we need a plumber.
Hi guys,

Good day
My question is concenrning a system where the main water meter is on a 22mm water line, this line is then split to 15mm lines.
Will the 22mm line water meter have a larger reading over the 15mm line water meter?
Hi all, I currently have an external water meter (which is a sub-meter) of my neighbours meter. The mains supply runs into their garden and then splits off into my sub-meter.
We are planning on building an extension near to the existing external sub-meter and I have sought advice from Yorkshire...
Hi, Solar thermal not so big these days but a couple of Q for anyone who still works in it.
Background. I'm an Electrician not a plumber.. I've been maintaining my otherwise excellent solar thermal (Original install MCS by Others), for the last ~ 18 years, over which time I've needed to clean...
Customer is asking me to remove gas meter and fit it back another day to allow him to have his kitchen fitted.
I checked with Gas Safe and they said I can do it. I'd have thought I wouldn't be allowed to go around removing meters as we're supposed to work downstream only.
What fittings do I use...
Hi- In an apartment and the attached picture is what I have. I am looking to install a magnetic descaler on the main water line and want to know if the cylindrical thing is a meter (I don't pay for water as part of rent) and why the ball valve is 1/2 shut on what appears to be the main pipe
I...
I had a boiler check today all went well, and then he went to check on the gas meter which is in my larder in the kitchen high up on the wall.
That wasn’t too much of an issue, although the gas engineer did say that it wasn’t a common place to have it, but it was there when we moved in so...
I had to gas rate on an E6 meter in a dark, muddy basement the other day. No place to put down tools.
I stayed there for two minutes only to find out the meter index had not updated at all. Obviously the cooker was burning gas.
I press the red button at the beginning and the end.
Has anyone...
