What is a "gas meter"?
A gas meter is a device used to measure the amount of gas, typically natural gas, that is being consumed by a household or business. It records the volume of gas used for heating, cooking, and other purposes. The meter is usually located outside the building or in a utility area and is read periodically by the gas company to calculate the gas bill. Some modern meters are digital, while older models may have a dial or rotating display. The gas meter helps ensure accurate billing and is an essential part of managing gas usage.
