We are responsible for gas assets across the UK and work closely with several different service partners to ensure that customers are kept safe, by keeping their Gas meters reliable and efficient.
You may have received a letter from our service partner advising that your gas meter has come to the end of its working life and needs to be replaced.
This replacement is free of charge and takes around 45 minutes to complete. You can arrange a convenient time for it to happen.
