How can I read my gas meter?

Asked 2 years ago
Reading a gas meter is a straightforward process that allows customers to monitor their gas usage. Most gas meters display the consumption in cubic feet or cubic meters. To read your gas meter, start by locating it, typically found outside the home or in a basement. You will notice a series of dials or a digital display. If your meter has dials, you will see multiple circular dials, usually numbered from left to right. To read the dials, begin with the dial on the far left and move to the right. Record the numbers, and take note to read the dials in the direction that they turn, which may differ from one dial to another. If the pointer is between two numbers, always record the lower number. For digital meters, simply read the displayed numbers. It is important to note that some digital meters may have additional characters or zeros, so ensure you only take the relevant numbers for your usage. For detailed guidance, customers may visit the Terasen Gas website, which provides resources to help further understand gas meter readings.
