Water Metre

Hi There
I am in the process of moving into a house with a water meter already installed and its worrying me sick. is there any way we can have it removed, i have never lived anywhere that has had one and keep thinking we are not going to afford the bills. i much prefer to have a set amount going from the bank account every month.
am i worrying unnecessary

  • Hi

    i rented a house with a water meter and as far as i know it cannot be removed, id advise you go easy on the water as for 3 of us in a 2 up 2 down house it was £50 a month, i have moved and dont have water meter now and
    its around £30 a month now..... Phew !

    but no harm in you asking the water board if you can have it changed.

    good luck.

    No the meter most certainly cannot be removed.
