Application process.
Anglian Water differs as we require a form submission via our Retailer portal from the contracted Retailer or their approved contract partner which could be any logger provider working on behalf of the NHH customer.
Charge to exchange a non loggable meter.
Anglian Water differs here as a charge will be made unless a proactive exchange is due to happen in the very near future. Charges are not limited to the meter exchange, other enabling works may need to be completed e.g. chamber enlargement.
Wholesaler to re-attach logger following exchange of meter.
Anglian Water differs here as our engineers may not be trained on all types of logging equipment. The logger device/pulse unit will be left within the chamber or safe place for the owner of the equipment to reconnect. |
