Default Water meter

Good idea or not? (I reckon not with a teen in the house)

And how much pipe do they need?


Why not do like I did, and fit your own? Then you can monitor your usage and
work out whether you'd be better or worse off if your supply was officially
metered.

Mine replaces about 5" of pipe. I think the water-board-supplied ones are
about the same.

FWIW, I've just taken a photo of it, which you can see at
http://www.mills37.plus.com/Water_meter.JPG Not the best of photos, taken
under the sink, in the dark, using flash. [It's still better than most of
TMH's photographic efforts! g]
