The prices of payment of utilities grow much quicker, than the salary. And someone from our compatriots is able to afford not to pay attention to such things, and each kopek lowered in water supply system in the literal meaning of these words is expensive to someone. Therefore installation of the counter on water gives the chance to control the budget and to spend it more purposefully.
It is better to buy counters on hot and cold water in shop, but not in the market. It gives guarantee that you will buy the equipment of the corresponding quality and meeting the necessary requirements. But anyway, before making purchase, attentively study the passport of manufacturer and check complete set. Make sure that the body and indicators are not damaged. Also there have to be whole seals of the plant with the brand applied on them. To install the counter in your apartment or in the house only the organizations having the corresponding license can. Especially as besides professional skills of the plumber, knowledge of the established standards and requirements of the legislation will be required here. But before inviting experts for direct installation of counters, it is necessary to check serviceability of your plumbing (shutoff valves, cranes, the pipeline). There should be no leakage, otherwise the installed equipment not only will not save your family budget, but will become source of unforeseen expenses. The place where the counter will be installed, has to be easily accessible for free removal of indications. And at the same time it is necessary to prevent any possibility of water ingress on the device body. All other work is already performed by representatives of the company to which you address. After carrying out all works the master will have to provide you all necessary documents for registration of the equipment: the contract for installation, the act of the performed works, the act of start in operation, the maintenance contract of the device, the passport and technical documentation on the counter. The latest stage is setting of counters on accounting in "Directorate of the uniform customer". Here you sign the contract for water payment then already once a month will need to be provided information on indications of the equipment there and to make payment for water on the basis of these data.
