Water meter
Water meters need to be checked and switched out after a certain number of years according to law.
When your water meter needs to be switched out we will book an appointment to come to you and send out information in the mail.
If you want to reschedule the appointment, contact Skellefteå municipality's customer service at 0910-73 50 00 (press 3) as soon as possible. Telephone hours are Monday-Friday 8:00-16:00. You can also reach them by emailing kundtjanst@skelleftea.se
It’s important that you reschedule the appointment if it doesn’t suit you. If you don’t do it and we come to you and can’t carry out our work, we need to charge you a fee of 878 SEK to cover our extra costs.
We need easy access
When we visit you, we want you or someone else responsible for the property to be at home and give us access to it. To carry out the work, we need to be able to stand in front of the water meter. This means that:
- There needs to be a free space of at least 60 centimeters in front and 70 centimeters above the water meter.
- The shut-off valves on either side of the meter need to be in good condition so the water can be shut off safely.
- There needs to be some sort of lighting.
