Does any body know how to set a £1.00 coin operated gas meter............we have one in our flat above our showroom and have not changed the units for 5 yrs!!!!!!

 

So tenants getting rather cheap gas:mac1:

 

We did have the booklet on it but it seems to have been put somewhere very very safe:x:

sounds like a really safe place, lol. i thought it was only the gas companies that could do it but i'm sure someone on here is a gas engineer, he might be able to help

if they are like the rdl slot meters we use you just remove the money box, then undo the bolt that holds the money slot in place and rotate it accordingly, our elec meters are set on about 5.8

 

hope this helps

well, was i right???

Simular we found out how to adjust the bloody thing but to what rate???:confused:

the only thing my boss recomeends is that you get a gas bill and work out how much one unit costs, so if you have used 300 units and the bill is £300 its one pound per unit, then youadjust the coin mechanism to suit, so if you put £1 pound throught the meter and you get one unit then you are close,

 

another way will take longer, get a qauterly bill for the place the meter is i, emoty the meter and then see if it is anywhere near the amount of the bill, if not again adjust accordignly, our elec meters are on 5.8, the lower the number its set on means you get less units per pound on ya meter

 

he has phoned lots of places trying to get the info, but no fooker will tell him lol

 

hope this helps, sorry for the delay and lack of advice

Cheers for all your help Alan:duffer:

 

We have also tried to get this info and i would have better luck in selling my z for 10k:tongue:

 

But many thanks to you and your boss, i will try the first suggestion as the second one would not be poss as we get the bill for the whole property.

two l's BTW lol. sorry i could not be of more help

 

you culd always ring a gas suplier and ask about switching companies and you would like to know how many uinits you get to the pound to compare
