Use this category for costs incurred in connection with **reading meters** and with **preparing the heating and hot water statement**.

These include, for example, costs for:

* the (digital) reading of meters such as heat cost allocators, heat meters or hot water meters
* recording and evaluating the consumption values
* the preparation of the heating cost statement by an external service provider
* the metering service provider's billing fees

Choose this category where the finished heating and hot water statement shows corresponding items for reading, recording consumption or preparing the statement.
