Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to change my meter?

Many of the existing meters have reached their end-of-life or soon will be. Some have already malfunctioned, which means estimated bills have been used. This isn’t ideal, particularly as energy costs have dramatically increased.

What are the benefits?

Paying for heating based on an estimated bill will mean you’re either under paying or over-paying. Both options are not ideal, so by installing a new meter you’ll only pay for your usage and won’t receive any surprise bills.

How quickly can I get my meter installed?

You can select the Priority service when making your booking and it will be arranged as quickly as possible based on available dates. For our Standard service, we will be in touch via email to propose a date. If you can be available on this day, you can confirm attendance by clicking the supplied link.

Will I be able to select an installation date?

A date will be proposed via an email we will send out. If you are able to attend this date, you will be able to confirm attendance by clicking a link. The times for this install will be anytime between 8am to 3pm

How long will the meter last?

The heat meters have a life span of approximately 10-12 years.

How can I pay for my new meter installation?

When making your booking, the process will take you through to a payment gateway to process the payment where payment can be made securely online via a credit or debit card.

What are the costs?

Standard Service

The Standard service is designed for residents who don’t have a time sensitive requirement and are happy be part of a bulk replacement process. This means a minimum of 3 orders are needed to activate the multiple meter installation and this helps keep costs down.

Once the minimum threshold of 3 replacements has been achieved, Data Energy will initiate the procurement and assess available dates and times to conduct the replacements. You will receive an email containing a link to confirm your availability for an appointment. Once all appointment slots have been confirmed, our engineers will attend the site replacing your heat meter.
