City employees read meters

Employees of Stadtwerke Kaiserslautern and Stadtwerke Ramstein-Miesenbach, the city works in charge of electricity, gas and water, are currently visiting customers to read their meters. Every meter reader has a company badge customers can ask to see. If meter readers are unable to reach customers at home, they will leave a message. Those customers are asked to read the meters themselves and report the readings to Stadtwerke as soon as possible. Customers of Stadtwerke Ramstein-Miesenbach can email their meter readings to SK@Stadtwerke-Ramstein.de or visit www.stadtwerke-ramstein.de. Customers of Stadtwerke Kaiserslautern should email their meter readings to ablesung@swk-kl.de, visit www.swk24.de or call 0631-8001-1999. If customers don’t notify their city works, their consumption will be estimated. Officials ask customers to remove all objects in front of the meters to make the reading as easy as possible.
