Electric Meters

Most electric meters are read from the outside. 

Water Meters

While water meters are usually located inside the residence, we typically read your water meter by remote from outside your home. On occasion, we may need to gain access to your water meter if there is a problem with the remote. If necessary, we will contact you to schedule an appointment to gain access to the inside meter.
