Abstract: A meter supporting and positioning apparatus for use with a public utility meter to facilitate its use and connection into a supply line. The apparatus includes inlet and outlet pipe members with one connecting the meter to a service line and the other pipe member connects with a supply line. the pipe members each have a generally horizontally disposed foot forming portion extending partially under the meter and being adapted for engagement with a support surface. Each of the pipe members also include an upstanding leg forming portion having the meter connected to a free end thereof whereby the meter is spaced above the support surface. A connector engages the two upstanding pipe portions holding same in spaced relation and forms a unitary and rigid support structure. The meter is positioned relative to the feet forming portions so as to have balanced loading to reduce torque applied to the pipe members. A form of the apparatus includes a pipe member for connecting a pressure regulator in series with a meter.
