Hello.
My gas meter is going up even with my combi boiler switched off and my cooker disconnected (at the bayonet fitting). I've done the soapy water thing on the bayonet fitting and could not see any change in the bubble.
The meter appears to measure in Cu Ft, and has 4 white digits, 2 red digits and an analog clock like dial with a "1" at 12 o'clock and ".5" at 6 o'clock.
At 10:00am it read 3405.73 [2 o'clock] and at 11:45pm it was 3405.74 [11 o'clock].
Is this a severe leak?
How will the plumber find where the leak is? Are there hand held gas detector "tricorders" or is it just a matter of listening & soapy water?
Any suggestions on hunting the leak myself (to save time/money when the plumber arrives)?
Cheers
