Reference points for selecting household gas meters

The following points can be referred to when selecting a household gas meter:

1.Determine the type of gas: household gas mainly includes coal gas, natural gas and liquefied gas. Different gases have different calorific values. Generally, the higher the calorific value of the gas, the less gas consumption. You can choose a suitable gas meter according to the actual type of gas used.

2.Estimate gas consumption: Estimate gas consumption based on the number of family members, the type of gas appliances and the frequency of use. If you only use a gas stove, you can choose a gas meter with a smaller flow rate; if you also have a gas water heater, a wall-mounted boiler, etc., you need to choose a larger flow rate. Common gas meters include G1.6, G2.5, G4 and other models. G1.6 is suitable for small households or households with low gas consumption, with a maximum flow rate of 2.5m³/h; G2.5 is suitable for most households, with a maximum flow rate of 4m³/h; G4 is suitable for large households or households with multiple gas appliances, with a maximum flow rate of 6m³/h.

3.Consider functional requirements: Ordinary diaphragm gas meters have simple structures, accurate measurement and convenient maintenance, and are the first choice for most households. If you pursue convenience, you can choose a gas meter with intelligent functions such as remote meter reading and leakage alarm, which can improve the convenience and safety of use.
