I am renting the lower ground flat in my house.

I would like to install a water meter so that the tenant pays for actual water consumed.

I know where the cold and hot water pipes that go into the flat are. They are inside the property.

Can I purchase two water meters and install them myself?

This way by adding the two readings I would know the water consumed and could bill the tenant based on the bill for the whole house.


Ideally I would like the tenant to be billed directly, but since the water meters are inside the property, and dependent on the first main meter I doubt the water company would do that.

Thanks,

Antonino
