Default New boiler undergassed. Blame gas meter governor?

I have just had a new Worcester-Bosch 24i system boiler installed in

be a problem with the gas meter governor, in which case they say
Transco would have to fix it. *However the 22mm pipe required by the
boiler is connected to a 15mm pipe from the gas meter. *Should the
installer fit a larger pipe to the gas meter instead of blaming the
governor and shifting the problem to Transco? *Any advice most
welcome.


What did the old boiler consume, the new unit is smaller and uses less
gas, right. Was a Manometer used to test flow
