Must have written consent from the water supplier / meter owner
If you have that remove it no problem
Hello Shaun,
As I wrote in my message above - even the Water Authority will not remove their Meters.
The Government has stipulated that ALL Homes in at least England [not sure about the rest of the UK ?] will have to be Metered to try and reduce Water consumption `Country wide` [possibly UK wide ?].
There will not be any `written permissions` given to remove Water Meters.
Regards,
Chris
Don't know then as I've had permission before and removed one guess it some must allow it
Hello again Shaun,
While You were writing your reply to me I was Editing my previous message above.
You are probably correct in that it may NOT be `Mandatory` / planned to install Water Meters in ALL Water Authority areas - the `Government directive` that I wrote about is actually permission to allow Water Authorities in areas where the Water supply is stated to be `stressed` / close to the maximum demand to impose Water Meters on Households.
I have to assume that as You wrote - in areas where the Water supply cannot be classed as `stressed` and the Government has not given permission for the Water Authority to `impose` Water Meters - then Householders could possibly obtain written permission / have the Water Authority remove the Meter.
When I stated that `even Water Authorities will not remove their Meters` I had been told that by the Thames Water Plumber that fitted my Neighbours `Compulsory` Water Meter - and it was Him who told me that this will be rolled out across England.
Regards,
Chris
It’s my brothers new house and the meter has been fitted in a down stairs wc which is a complete attrocity.
