I thought I read something about the regulations required it to be
properly supported, including a (second) bracket to support it at the
bottom?

Thing is, our latest energy supplier cannot access the OVO smart gas
meter remotely, so they have agreed with me to fit a replacement which
they can work with. I might as well make sure it is properly installed.


Supported on the unions seems to be the "normal" way these days. (the bracket
is strong and the meter not that heavy, so it does not seem to be a problem
in reality)

Thanks All, I will not bother to mention it when the installer calls.
