In December 2020, the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) approved MPU's request to transition to bi-monthly water meter reading for small-use water customers (those with meters sized between 5/8"-1"). This request was made to help offset costs to the water utility for meter reading as the electric meters are no longer manually read due to the conversion to electric AMI meters.

SCAM ALERT!
A local Manitowoc business received an email (shown below) as well as two phone calls from a person demanding the business make an “express payment” at Kwik Trip or Wal-Mart, or the power would be “disconnected in ten minutes”. MPU would like to remind customers that we NEVER will request payment at a gas station or retail store. Some scammers also request a pre-paid credit card or reloadable charge card to avoid disconnection; again, MPU would NEVER request this type of payment. If you ever have any questions regarding your account, please call our customer service department at 920-683-4600. Click here to see a copy of the email.
