Abstract: The definition of a domestic meter is a meter having a capacity of 500 CFH or less. Formerly these units were ottered in a variety of case materials. Probably the most common of these were tinned steelcase commonly referred to as Tin Meters. These low pressure, handmade meters are no longer manufactured in North America. Although accurate, the high cost of manufacture and repair, pressure limitations, lack of corrosion resistance and susceptibility to pipe stress made these units obsolete. For the higher pressures encountered with natural gas cast iron was used extensively. Although eliminating some of the tin meters drawbacks its great weight was less than ideal.
