The first component is volume cold water (m3)

The second component is thermal energy , spent on the preparation of hot water from cold (Gcal)

What statutory indicators do you need to know?

The cost of the component for cold water and for thermal energy for the population established by the Resolution of the Regional Energy Commission of the UR dated December 17, 2013 No. 21/8.

In Izhevsk: cold water component = 11.62 m3

component for thermal energy = 1368.80 Gcal

In Sarapul: cold water component = 25.69 m3

component for thermal energy = 1696.96 Gcal

For houses where there is no common house metering device, the Government of the UR, by its order dated January 27, 2014 No. 38-p, approved temporary indicators of the specific consumption of thermal energy for water heating.

For Izhevsk- 0.051965 Gcal/m3

For Sarapul- 0.053079 Gcal/m3

How to calculate? (an example of calculation is given for Izhevsk residents, for Sarapul residents, change the numbers)

In houses WITH METERING DEVICES:

General formula: DHW cost=+

Where:

=

readings of the metering device for the consumption of thermal energy

___________________________________________________х 1368 rub./Gcal

DHW consumption meter readings

the volume of consumed cold water x 11.62 rubles/m3.

In houses WITHOUT METERING DEVICES:

0.051965 Gcal/m3 (specific heat energy consumption for water heating)

RUB 1,368.80/Gcal

Cold water component cost = the volume of consumed cold water x 11.62 rubles/m3.

Will the cost of hot water increase as a result?

For residents of houses that are not equipped with metering devices, the payment for hot water should not change.

As for houses equipped with metering devices, in this case there is no definite answer. For some, it will decrease, for others it will remain at the same level, for others it will increase. It all depends on the volume of water consumption by the inhabitants of a particular house, on heat loss. For example, many have heated towel rails installed in the bathroom, which give off heat around the clock, and for some, warm floors work not due to electricity, but due to hot water. You will have to pay extra for all this.

Introduction:

The topic of calculating utility bills is one of the most difficult. For those who have not encountered the problem before, it is difficult to figure it out right away, and there seems to be no time for this.

However, let's try.

For calculations, RF GD No. 354 (procedure and methods for all occasions), RF GD No. 307 (only for heating and only until July 1, 2016, then RF GD No. 354 is valid), RF GD No. 306 (standards).

The text of the documents is complex, practically inaccessible to the mass payer. There is no clear system in the notation of physical quantities, which can confuse the reader, there are no names of physical quantities used in the calculation formulas and explanations. As if they were writing for themselves. Type we know ourselves, but the rest of us do not need to know.

And one more initial remark. Gentlemen from the Criminal Code and from the Developer often show great joy regarding the "energy efficiency" of new buildings, in particular in our area.

The essence of energy efficiency is a strict accounting of all communal resources and measures to save them. Let's see in the course of the discussion how justified such "joy".

Since our DHW system is closed, that is, non-centralized, the corresponding section of the RF PP No. 354 (Appendix 2, Section IV) is used for calculations, when the production of public services, in this case DHW is carried out by the contractor (MC) on our ITP equipment from the common property.

Regarding this very concept of "production" of hot water supply by the contractor, we will not go into details for now. This is a separate rather "muddy" and controversial topic, who actually produces what and how.

We only note that according to RF PP No. 354, clause 54 of the Rules, it is clearly defined that the fee for the maintenance of common property (ITP equipment, where the service provider heats water for hot water supply) is charged separately. That is, "production" - operating costs for this common property are included in the payment for the maintenance and repair of common property and are not included in the calculation of payment for hot water supply.

So, what should be taken into account when calculating the DHW fee?

The total consumption of cold drinking water (through the cold water line) supplied for heating for domestic hot water.

The total consumption of thermal energy taken in boilers from the heat carrier from the centralized supply of thermal energy (heating).

Everything seemed simple. I divided the total heat consumption (heating) by the total volume of cold water that was used for hot water supply and the order. Received the specific heat consumption per cubic meter of hot water.

However, in our receipts there is no accounting for the total volume of cold water and hot water separately.

And the data of individual consumption for hot water and cold water cannot be used due to the systematic measurement error apartment meters. Therefore, the concept of ODN was introduced to eliminate this systematic error and to accurately calculate the total water consumption for the entire house by a common house meter.

In this sense, RF PP No. 354 is not quite correct and the campaign has long been outdated in places, when it is proposed to use the total readings of the IPU as the basis for calculations if there is no common house meter, but at the same time, the authors of the regulatory text completely forgot about the systematic error of the apartment IPU (dead zone IPU at low water flow rates).

According to the law "On Energy Saving ...", the first thing to be done is to install common house metering devices, and where there is no technical possibility due to the design of the house, the technical possibility must be created by reconstructing (attaching) the premises for the installation of utility metering units.

The general house accounting of communal resources is not beneficial for public utilities, and therefore the process is sabotaged. In "muddy water" cheating is easier.

Also, we don’t have a separate accounting for the consumption of thermal energy in the ITP, which is spent on heating hot water. At least this is not evident from the content of the information given in the receipt.

But what about the super duper energy efficient ITP? Isn't that too easy for a super duper energy efficient "space tech" ITP?

Have you installed one common cold water meter and one common heat energy meter for the entire unit and are happy like elephants?

And according to the Law, each individual house must be equipped with metering devices.

How does it differ then our ITP from the usual heating unit of the old Soviet house?

Why do we get "over the ears" every year about energy efficiency?

I'm looking for some crook - a "money pump" under an energy service contract "authoritatively" to say that we need to install metering devices to improve energy efficiency.

It is already clear to us that a comprehensive accounting of communal resources is needed.

Who prevented the installation of a two-channel heat energy meter? Was it difficult to plug in a meter to account for the consumption of make-up water for the DHW system?

And if they do exist, then why are their readings not used in calculations and not indicated in receipts?

A few years ago, a new line appeared in the receipts - water heating. Many people don't know what this service is and why they have to pay for it. After all, before payment was made only for warm water. Therefore, many do not want to pay double fees. However, non-payment of the money indicated in this column leads to the appearance of debt. Since the amount for heating water in receipts is charged for a separate service.

What is heating is one of the most frequently asked questions. The document has 2 columns for thermal water supply (DHW) and heating.
What is DHW - this is hot water supply. But people don't understand why they have to deposit money twice. But in fact, everything is different. DHW is not warm water, but heat energy, which is spent by housing and communal services to bring the liquid to the desired temperature. Therefore, a double tariff was introduced for hot water supply and for the spent energy.

This tariff was set due to the fact that additional energy is expended to achieve a normal temperature. Previously, fuel consumption was not taken into account when calculating utility bills, and money was collected for this only during the heating period.
Because of what, during this period, people's expenses for heating and heating increased greatly. To prevent people from drastically increasing costs, the Government divided the costs spent on achieving normal temperatures for the whole year.

Is it legal to charge for this

Seeing an additional column in the check, people think if it is legal. Some immediately turn to the company's employees and clarify what the new column means and why you need to pay. And some just don't pay for it.

However, such actions of consumers will be considered illegal, since the obligation to pay for water heating is specified in the articles of the Housing Code. Also, the legitimacy of demanding payment for this is also indicated in

What if the equipment breaks

If the heater breaks, then the heating will not increase or decrease. Therefore, it is important to quickly return it to duty. In this situation, payers must immediately inform the employees of the management company about the breakdown. After receiving the application, the legal entity must immediately send specialists to restore the operation of the water heater.

It is also the responsibility of the tenants to purchase the equipment.

How to determine the cost yourself

The cost of heating cold water is indicated in the receipt. For cold and hot liquids, calculating the total amount is quite simple, but few people know how to calculate the amount of payment for an additional service.

How is water heating calculated in the bill in summer and winter, and what data will you need to know:

1. Be sure to know what tariff is set in the region.
2. What losses did the management company suffer to transport the resource.
3. How much energy was actually used to reach the required temperature.
4. How much resource is consumed each month.

Not all managing organizations provide such data to residents of apartment buildings. However, any person can request this information from the HOA or the Criminal Code, and employees legal entity are required to provide reliable information on payment for services for the supply of an apartment.

If you refuse to respond to the request, the applicant may file a complaint against the employees of the management company with Rospotrebnadzor. Having received all the necessary data, you can independently calculate and compare the heating bill indicated in the bill.

Calculation of the total amount in 2018

Heating is the most expensive utility service. This is due to the fact that special heating devices are used for heating, which consume a lot of energy.

To calculate the amount of payment for heating for hot water supply, it is necessary to determine how much resource has been spent, for this it is necessary to take readings from the meter or make a calculation for hot moisture, if it is not there. The calculation of the amount of remuneration for DHW heating is made according to the following formula:

P gv \u003d Vgv × Txv + (V v kr × Vi gv / ∑ Vi gv × Tv kr)

V hw - the volume of hot water consumed for billing period(month) in an apartment or non-residential premises

T xv - tariff for cold water

V v kr - the amount of thermal energy used for the billing period for heating cold water in the independent production of hot water management company

∑ Vi hw - the total volume of hot water consumed during the billing period in all

T v kr - the tariff for thermal energy in the premises of the house.

The rate set in the region is multiplied by the standard of heat required to heat a cubic meter of liquid. The resulting figure is multiplied by the amount of resource consumed.

For residents who do not have a meter, the calculation must be made as follows: the standard is divided by the number of residents in the house (apartment).
The resulting result will not be accurate, since the management company also adds the costs spent on the repair, maintenance and maintenance of special devices.

Utility bills for heating hit homeowners' budgets hard. In connection with what people do not want to deposit money for no reason. And the appearance in the paper of a new column for heating always raises questions, especially if you have to pay a rather large amount for innovation. Heating appeared on the receipt not so long ago, which is why many people still have not figured out why they have to pay for it separately, because they already pay for water supply.

When paying for utilities, consumers see various abbreviations on the receipts. It is important to know what is behind these letters and where the money goes. DHW is a hot water service. But what it includes and what it consists of, let's take a closer look.

Regulatory framework and definitions

Hot water, centrally supplied to consumers, in accordance with the provisions of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 354 of 05/06/2011, is one of the communal resources. A utility service is the provision of a resource to a consumer by a service provider (supplier).

That is, in the case of hot water supply, a utility service is the supply of hot water of the required parameters to apartments in apartment buildings, dormitory rooms, enterprises and public buildings (hospitals, laundries, kindergartens, etc.).

Services for the supply of hot water to residents are provided by the heating network, which is also responsible for the implementation of centralized heating of residential and public buildings.

Service Features

The preparation of hot water for the needs of hot water supply occurs at centralized heating boilers, in the same place where the heat carrier of the heating system is heated.

Boilers can be connected to a looped DHW system or be dead-end - designed for a group of houses or one house (for example, rooftop boilers). The closer the consumer is to the source of hot water (boiler room), the better the service will be, the higher the water temperature. However, connection to looped networks is preferable in terms of reliability and uninterrupted hot water supply.

The service includes:

1. Boiler service. Unlike heating, hot water supply is provided all year round, while boiler houses switch to summer (minimum) operation.
2. Track maintenance.
3. Carrying out planned maintenance work on networks.

The water heated in the boiler room for an open (non-closed) DHW system enters the consumers' apartments through the supply water pipes, being distributed through the domestic DHW networks.

It should be remembered that hot water cannot be used for cooking due to the presence of additives in it - special additives that reduce the level of scale formation on the inner walls of pipelines.

The temperature of hot water at consumers is regulated by sanitary and legal norms and is + 50 ... + 65 ° С. In fact, it often does not exceed +40 °C.

This is due to heat losses during the supply of coolant along the routes (poor-quality pipe insulation, gusts) or due to low temperature at the outlet of the boiler room. Boiler room operators adjust the output parameters based on the outdoor temperature.

The task of the service provider is to provide the apartments with a communal resource of proper quality. Sometimes the heating network justifies the poor quality of the service by the deplorable state of the networks - routes built in the last century that require overhaul, will not withstand the temperature difference in winter, if the parameters of the coolant at the outlet of the boiler house are maintained at the standard level.

It turns out a vicious circle - many residents often do not pay for hot water due to its low temperature, or even refuse this service, switching to electric water heating. And the enterprises of the heating network cannot carry out repair work, because. the debt of the population to pay does not give them an inflow Money.

Outcome

Whether or not to pay for the DHW service, if it turns out to be of insufficient quality, is a purely personal matter. It is important to understand that by deciding to go down the path of non-payment, you do not just need to produce debts. It is necessary to collect the evidence base according to the following scheme: make commission measurements of water temperature, send the results to the service provider. Be sure to get an official response explaining the reasons for the low quality of the service. Having collected a package of evidence, you can go to court to defend your rights.
