New water meters

Hi, this was discussed a while back community.livejournal.com/davis_square/1725796.html . Now we got their little red cards urging us to call. Since that last thread, has anyone had any problems with the new meters?

re-install

They had to come three times to our place. They installed the new meters .. then twice they called to say they weren't getting a signal and had to replace it again. Each time I had to take 1/2 a day off work.

One would question why they don't test the signal when they install? Sounds like somewhat poor planning on their parts, and an unfortunate situation for you.

They have a mini-tester with which they confirm the signal is being transmitted. But for some stupid reason they don't have a way to have their actual receiving center confirm that they are getting the signal. In the end, they moved the transmitter all of one foot, and apparently that got it past whatever obstruction was blocking it before.
