Today in each apartment or house you can find meters, and often different types: for water, gas, electricity . Virtually any convenience is counted according to the meters. In cities where there is hot water, two meters are installed on the water - cold and hot water separately. But, that if you find that the hot water counter has broken down, and do not know what to do, we will provide a few tips.
The water meter broke - what should I do?
It is not difficult to recognize the breakage of the meter - when using water, the scoring mechanism stops scrolling. This occurs during the initial marriage or depressurization of the device, as a result of which the water or steam that got inside led to a breakdown. If the water meter breaks down, we recommend that you take measures, without delay, to take measures, otherwise utilities will count you cubic meters according to general standards. And this, as practice shows, is extremely unprofitable. Moreover, if you discover that you have been hiding a breakdown for a long time, you may be fined.
If to talk about where to go, in case the water meter broke, then this is the organization that installed the device in your apartment, or in the local Deux. Usually the problem is solved by removing the meter, checking it and replacing it with a new one or repaired. If you have a current warranty, change or verification will cost for free. If the warranty period is over, you will have to pay for the repair or a new meter.
With regard to such a sensitive issue, if the water meter in a rented apartment has broken down, then first of all it is again necessary to notify the responsible organizations, and then the owner himself. It is in our interests to solve the problem as quickly as possible, so as not to overpay as a result. The cost of installing a new meter will have to be decided with the owner, at his expense, in half or for you, but with a deduction for rent. The owner may not care, but pay for the hot water to the tenants.
