Why Smart Meters Matter
Same-day lights only work with smart meters because light companies can turn them on remotely — no technician needed. Good news: most Texas homes already have one. If your home has an older meter, a technician visit is required, which means next-business-day service. Not sure? Your meter will have a digital display if it's smart.
Watch Out: Switch Holds
If someone left an unpaid light bill at your address, there might be a switch hold blocking new service.
