The concept "all-house needs" concerning municipal services of multifamily houses – the phenomenon not new. There was it and in Soviet period. However the most part of questions ODN began to be raised today. From the moment of the beginning of increase in prices for them and full opacity of calculations. Therefore many seek to understand independently as there are all-house needs.
All-house needs or as they are called still by ODN, is the size of the consumed utilities by the population of all house which is paying off as difference between the general consumption of water or the electric power and size which has turned out according to indications of individual metering devices. Usually understand the electric power which is required for illumination of entrance as all-house needs, warmly which warms entrance in the winter, and water which wash the floors and tide up entrance.
Features of ODN
Experts have counted that normal all-house needs are 3-7% of the total number of expenses. If indicators leave more, here it is necessary to understand. The reasons of wrapping can be very much – from banal theft zhilkontor to weak counters of accounting in apartments of citizens as opposed to the established qualitative all-brownies.
Disputes on all-house needs have begun when the cost of such services began to be 50% of the joint account received by residents. Cases when the payment order on 3-4 thousand in month became more expensive, are frequent.
The management company can charge ODN by strictly certain rules. For this purpose they have to consider the total area of the house according to the registration certificate, and that which demands costs of service, but not all area generally. Further it is necessary to state in each payment order to what owner how many and what belongs and what tariffs for payment will be used.
If the management company hides these data from the owner of the apartment, sending to look for him independently in BTI, it is possible to write safely the application in UK that you will not pay all-house expenses without these data.
In practice everything seems simply: the management company discloses monthly this all-house metering devices and divides them according to the areas of apartments in the stairwell. Everything is honest and clear. However the main problem also is that UK do not like to show these data. On them at once it will become visible that take place to be normal additions and waters, and it is warm, and light. Residents should pay as ODN various leakages, the consumed resources at the expense of unaccounted residents in apartments (for example, tenants), the connected pumps for watering and cleaning of the street territory of various municipal unitary enterprises, etc. As a result also rather round sum which significantly increases the payment order and nullifies all attempts to save within the apartment runs.
As it is possible to save on ODN
To save on all-house needs, try to monitor own consumption of resources first of all. Respectively, saving light and water, you will be able to reduce the general expense in the house. Besides, try to achieve also full transparency in calculations. For this purpose it is necessary that indications from all-house and personal devices were made together. It is connected with the fact that if you transfer indications today, and the controller has passed across the house tomorrow, to you several excess kilowatts and liters will be added at once. Surely regularly check documents of verification of the all-house device at UK. It surely has to function correctly that there were no excess digits. Well also do not hesitate to mark out excess consumers. It is enough to report in ZhEK about unauthorized and unaccounted residents as accounts will begin to decrease.
