The installation of a gas meter in the apartment allows you to significantly save on payment. This is true in most cases. Most often, the owners of such dwellings spend on an average of 30 – 50% less than those who have this device not installed. Therefore, many would like to conduct similar control over the consumption of gas. Consider what rules and norms must be observed when installing a gas meter.
Firstly, only Gorgaz specialists, or other organizations and companies, such as this Sayany-Nn/Ustanovka-Schetechikov-Gaza, are entitled to engage in such work.HTML, having a license in hand about the right to this type of activity. No problems with installing counters in the apartment can arise if this is a new house. The fact is that in the new buildings the presence of such devices in residential premises is provided for initially. Moreover, their location and design features are already taken into account at the design stage of the building itself. Another thing is if the counter is required to install in an already populated apartment in an old -style house.
The first thing to do at the same time is to contact the local branch of Gorgaz and write an appropriate application. At the same time, this organization must provide a technical passport for the apartment. Based on the information gleaned from this document, the specialists will draw up a project and determine the installation site of the control device.
During work, employees of the gas company must comply with the stipulated standards. Firstly, the counter must be installed no closer than half a meter from the window and doors. The height of its location in this case is at least 1.5 m. In the event that the device is installed outside the building, it must be reliably protected from precipitation and direct sunlight hit.
The installation of the counter indoor is possible only if it has a ventilation duct. In addition, experts, when compiling the project, will have to take into account the minimum distances to other gas devices and equipment and to electrical appliances, including sockets and switches provided for by the relevant regulatory documents.
According to existing rules, the metering device is installed last. Before that, all the necessary nodes and elements of gas equipment should be mounted. A crane that opens/closes the supply of gas to the burners is placed next to the counter. In the event that the owner notices any malfunction of the metering device, or other gas equipment, he must immediately report this to the gas service.
