How to register the water meter
The last operation before registering the meter is its sealing, which is made by the specialists of the municipal water channel by prior request. To put the meter on the register, the necessary package of documents is collected according to the list, which will be provided by the housing office or water supplier. Usually, the procedure takes 1.5 - 2 months, after which the tariffs will be revised, and you will receive new payment receipts, in which you will receive a graph for making a statement.
Further, using the simple calculation method, we calculate the amount to be paid for water supply services. We use the simple formula "the cost of one cubic meter of water" multiplied by "the number of whole cubic meters used for a period of time according to the meter readings" and get the amount to be paid.
Verification of equipment
Verification is a procedure for checking the correctness of the accounting device. Periodicity of verification of equipment should occur at least once in 3 years, otherwise, if an error is detected, the user will have to pay a penalty to the service provider.
