The legislation defines strict deadlines for installing gas meters in apartments and houses of Russians. By January 1, 2015, every property owner will be required to install this equipment.
The first question that arises among consumers is “Why install a gas meter?”. The thing is that in 2009 Federal Law No. 261-FZ came into force, which assumes mandatory installation counters.
On this moment the consumer has the right to choose the manufacturer and the company that will carry out the installation; after January 1, 2015, the installation will be carried out by the gas supply organization. In turn, consumers will be required to provide access to the installation site, as well as pay the cost of installation. In case of refusal to pay, it will be forcibly collected, along with the payment of the costs that it entailed.
Each subscriber must understand that the meter is assigned not only a control function, but also a savings function. By installing a meter, you will be sure that you are paying only for the gas that you used.
Basic installation requirements
The rules for installing gas meters determine that they can only be installed by specialists who have the necessary licenses to carry out these works. Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 410 dated May 14, 2013 defines the range of organizations, these include companies that transport gas to the grid junction. It is they who have permission to install, replace and repair gas equipment.
After installing the meter, only employees of the state gas service have the right to start gas. They are also responsible for making changes to the executive and technical documentation located in the archive of the organization.
The norms for installing the meter require mandatory execution, since it will depend on general security residents of the house. The involvement of low-skilled workers can lead to gas leakage, and this, in turn, is a threat to the life and health of subscribers.
Owner's responsibility
Many gas consumers, when installing a meter, are wondering who will be responsible for correct work and operation of the equipment. First of all, the responsibility falls on the shoulders of the owner of the premises and those employees who carry out installation work. If the connection diagram was not developed correctly, and this led to the occurrence emergency all responsibility rests with the performer. installation work.
Representatives of the state gas service and the supervisory authority have the right to disconnect meters that were installed without authorization, without permits and without observing the installation and sealing procedures.
All requirements that are put forward in relation to gas meters are regulated by regulatory documents. In addition, equipment manufacturers strongly recommend following the recommendations that appear in the technical data sheet. This list of rules determines the location of the gas meter, relative to gas equipment, floors and walls, as well as temperature regime under which the equipment can be operated.
Installation and operation
Before performing any work, a preliminary inspection of the territory and analysis of the gas appliances used are carried out. Employees draw up a diagram and determine the estimate of the necessary installation costs, which are most often limited to the use of welding.
After completion, gas is launched into equipment that is operated in an apartment or house. Carrying out gas welding works involves disconnecting the entire entrance from the gas supply, if we are talking about the presence of a common gas pipeline. 
A prerequisite for the operation of gas equipment is its sealing. This procedure is performed by employees of the gas supplier company on the basis of a submitted application from the subscriber. In the absence of a seal, the meter readings will not be considered valid and the calculation based on them will not be carried out. The day the seal is installed is the day from the moment of which the volumes of consumed gas are determined by the fact of its consumption.
Compliance, purchase quality equipment and the involvement of professionals is a guarantee not only of safety, but also of saving the consumption of gas resources, and hence the opportunity to save your own money.
The law came into force, and now it is everyone's responsibility to install a gas meter. However, there is no need to rush.
Let's start with how to choose the right metering device and not make a mistake?
What needs to be done, what papers need to be prepared and why?
Before you buy a gas meter, you need to clarify several parameters. They will help you choose the right device for the needs of the user.
- Number of consumers in the house and overall fuel consumption.
- Temperature environment , at which the counter can work.
- Thread diameter at the outputs of the controller (counter).
- Connection side device.
- Its service life.
- Distance between centers gas controller outputs.
Now let's take a look at what it means and why you need it.
- Each counter is labeled as follows: G-x or G-x, y (instead of letters, numbers indicate on the controllers minimal amount gas that they are able to pass through themselves). For example, the apartment has geyser(flow rate 1 m3/h) and stove (1.5 m3/h). Their total fuel consumption is about 2.5 cubic meters / h, which means that a controller with an index of G-2.5 is suitable.
- Account controllers are installed in apartments and private houses. In the second case, this is done on the street, where in winter the temperature can drop to -30. In such conditions, only devices with a temperature compensator can work.
- Gas pipes in apartments are 1/2 inch, in houses it can be the same or 3/4. Rarely, but there are also inch pipes.
- Devices are produced with left-hand and right-hand gas supply. Which one will be needed depends on the position of all gas consumers relative to the installation site of the meter.
Important indicator! After the service life expires, the device will have to be replaced. The main thing to remember is that the service life begins from the moment the device is released. It is listed in the passport.
Installation rules
Installation of a gas meter hard work, not accepting errors. It is better to entrust it to specialists. This will help to avoid dangerous situations during installation and operation of the device. So, what needs to be done before installing the controller.
- Apply to an organization that supplies gas. Some documents must be attached to it. Tenancy agreement or owner's passport. Also needed: an identity document, a subscriber's book, a gasification project for a house or an apartment plan, a metering device passport. The last thing you need is a gas equipment maintenance agreement.
- The second step will be the visit of the master to the house. He will take the necessary measurements and let you know if you need additional work. Then the final price will be announced.
- Next, you will need to pay the specified amount, and agree on a convenient time for installation.
- The last stage is the installation of the device. After the specialists have finished, it is necessary to take from them an act and a document with calculations. These papers will be needed for sealing.
Possible and self-installation, but it is necessary to accurately calculate position of the device according to the rules below.
- Height installation 1.6 m.
- Distance from the device to gas appliances 1 m. If other figures are given in the instructions for the mechanism, then installation is carried out according to them.
- The device should lag behind the wall by 3-5 cm. To be less susceptible to corrosion.
- The controller must be placed in a room with natural ventilation.
- If the device is installed on outdoors, for it you should prepare a canopy or a special locker.
Remember that the installation will be evaluated by specialists at the time of filling. If any rules are violated, then everything will have to be redone.
Commissioning
After completion of the installation work, specialists check the operability of the device. Is there any obstruction in the passage of fuel through the apparatus. No gas leaks. The functionality of the device itself is also checked.
Whether there is a measurement of wasted fuel. Commissioning is completed, and the homeowner receives a certificate that certifies this.
filling
Now the landlord has everything Required documents. The next thing to do is get a filling. Further, within 5 working days, a specialist will visit the house. He will make sure that the device is installed correctly.
Based on the submitted application for the installation of a gas meter, and the documents received after the installation work, the sealing takes place.
A device that has not passed this procedure is considered illegal. His testimony will not be accepted when paying for gas supply services.
Verification
This procedure allows the gas supplier to verify that the machine is measuring without overshoot or undershoot. According to the legislation, the gas metering device undergoes primary verification before commissioning and after repair work.
Also, the device passport indicates the period after which this procedure must be repeated. In turn, the homeowner is obliged to provide the meter for verification within the time limits established for this.
How much does it cost to install by a specialist
The amount that you have to pay for the installation of the meter differs significantly in different rooms . It will depend on a number of factors.
- Number of consumers fuel.
- Will welding work.
- Pipe length for counter.
- Who bought the necessary fittings, pipes and the metering device itself.
For example, if the apartment has only a gas stove, then the cost of one installation work will cost 3-4 thousand rubles. If there is also a gas water heater, then the cost will increase to 7 thousand rubles.
The state obliged to install these devices. According to the reviews of people who already have counters, this is beneficial. So, if you correctly approach the selection and installation of the device, the result will be positive. Spent money quickly return back to the user's pocket.
Below we will get acquainted with three popular device models. Find out how much they cost and what users think about them.
Betar SGBM-1.6 price 1800 r.
Alina, Moscow
A year has passed since the installation of the meter. While everything works. I didn’t notice any cons, but the pluses are the small size and cost.
George, Voronezh
Complete "hat" this device. Of the 12 years declared by the manufacturer, he worked 5, and the battery ran out. Calling the master, new verification, battery replacement, everything will result in the full cost of the new unit.

I bought with caution, it was painfully cheap. But I don’t regret it at all, six years is a normal flight.
Omega G4 price 3500 r.
Boris, Tagil
Terrible product! Stood less than a year and the problems started. Periodically, it starts to stall or even stop. The gas pressure drops sharply. Will have to change.
Fatima, Ufa
Works great for over 6 years. The declared service life is 20 years, I think there will be no problems.
If you are tired of the average gas consumption rates "in the whole country", and you want to save your honestly earned personal funds, then it's time to take care of installing a gas meter. Like any metering device, a gas meter and its installation have characteristic features.
Strict controller - gas meter
A metering device that is designed to measure the amount of gas flowing through a gas pipeline is a household gas meter. Therefore, the meter is used for apartments and private houses equipped with mini furnaces. In most cases, gas communications and meters are installed for a significant period of operation.
Before choosing and installing a meter in an apartment, it is necessary to consider the safety of its performance and durability. The installation of a gas meter is a regulated activity that is controlled by the relevant authorities. The process of installing a gas meter will begin with a visit to just such coordinating organizations. So the time has come...
The principle of operation of gas meters
As you know, the invisible gas, thanks to which we are able to cook food, is a mixture consisting of certain components with given properties. Therefore, the process of calculating the gas mixture is built according to the laws of physics.
According to the principle of operation, gas meters are divided into groups:
turbine
vortex
rotary
membrane.
For household needs of the population, gas meters of rotational and membrane type are used.
Rotary gas meter
is based on the principle of counting the volume of gas passed in proportion to the number of revolutions of the rotor. The portion of gas cut off between the wall of the measuring chamber and the rotor is a quantitative unit. When the rotor rotates through a mechanical transmission, this information is transmitted to the counting mechanism, where the amount of gas that has passed is actually accumulated. The quantitative value of the count is the value of Qmax. For domestic sector Qmax is from 4 to 10 m3/h.
Principle of operation membrane counter
based on the short-term movement of thin mobile membranes. IN gas chambers in the presence of a gas mixture in the device, these membranes move, which, through a mechanical transmission, activates the counting mechanism. Membrane type meters are used for maximum gas flow rates Qmax. from 2.5 to 100 m3/h.
The device of a household gas meter is shown in the video.
General classification of accounting gas appliances based on the amount of gas consumed. So the gas consumption of an average stove with 4 burners is 1.56 m³ / h, for a gas column - 2.50 m³ / h.
Gas meters of industrial production are produced taking into account the direction of gas flow. Therefore, when purchasing a gas meter for an apartment, it is necessary to take into account the placement of the gas pipeline and stove in the kitchen.
Rules for installing the meter
Before starting installation work, you must contact the city gas utility. Such a procedure is necessary in order to find out all the conditions and details of installing the meter. You can deal with the purchase of a gas meter on your own by connecting a familiar professional specialist.
As an alternative - the purchase of a meter in the gas industry and its installation by the specialists of the economy. In this case, you can even save some money on the purchase of a meter, because gas industry specialists are interested in this purchase.
Installation of a gas meter is carried out only by specialists who have licensed rights to install this type of equipment. Are you looking forward to when the features of the national installation of meters will come?
Installation features will come immediately after you submit an application to Gorgaz. So, the next step in installing the meter will be submitting an application to the city gas industry. The application, certified by a personal signature and the date of submission, is accompanied by a photocopy of the technical passport for the living space and a certificate of no energy debt for the current month of service. After submitting the application and registering the meter, you will be assigned a day for the visit of a gas management specialist. A visit to a specialist should determine the technical feasibility of subsequent installation of the meter. In addition to such a survey, you will be given the price of installation.
On the appointed day, the installation and installation of the gas meter will be carried out by specialists from the gas industry.
Installation of equipment depends on the design features specific model and placement of the gas pipeline in the kitchen.
Features of installation of gas meters
It is allowed to lay a gas pipeline at the level of the connecting fitting. The shut-off valve can be located on the side of the stove at a distance of 200 mm. In the case of upper wiring, the shut-off valve is installed on the descent. The gas meter must be visible and located away from the stove.
Permissible installation height 1.5 m from the floor. Installation and installation of gas appliances is regulated by SNiP 42-01-2002 and SP 42-101-2003. According to paragraph 6.47 of SP 42-101-2003, the installation of meters is provided based on the conditions for the convenience of their installation, maintenance and repair.
Gas meters can be installed with rubber sleeves. Rubber sleeves must not fall into the heating zone of the appliance. The installation of meters provides for subsequent convenient conditions for maintenance or repair.
Such conditions are regulated by the operational documentation of the manufacturer. It is recommended to install meters outside the zone of moisture and heat release in well-ventilated places.
And we have gas in our apartment, and you
After the successful completion of the installation work, the owner of the apartment and the new installed counter receives the Installation Certificate and the settlement document intended for sealing the meter. And here again the "features" of installing gas meters arise: you will not be able to start using gas until the seals are installed.
Installation of seals on the counter is carried out by specialists. Payment for gas, according to the meter readings, is made after the installation of seals. The service life of the counter depends on its brand. After 10-15 years, you will have to take the meter for another verification.
Of course, you will be fabulously lucky if gas meters have been installed and registered earlier. In this case, the replacement of the gas meter can be omitted. If the meter meets all the parameters and is in working condition, then it will be enough to conclude an agreement with the organization. However, all the formalities of the correct execution of the documentation will have to be observed.
And now, finally, two weeks of waiting are over, and you are the proud owner of a gas meter in your apartment. Membrane and counter rotors waiting for the first batch explosive mixture called gas.
Gas metering allows you to understand who and for what you pay monthly. If you have not installed a gas meter, you will pay for each family member who is registered in this living space, regardless of such a factor, whether you use the entire limited amount of gas or not. If you install a gas meter, you will only pay for the energy used. Consumer experience shows that monthly payments for the use of gas after the installation of the meter will be reduced by 30 - 50%. Today we’ll talk about how to install a gas meter yourself and how to choose the right device.
Purpose of gas meters
In the private sector today a large number of houses are heated by gas. Tariffs for this type of energy are rapidly increasing in our country. In order to keep accurate records of this resource, you need to know the amount of gas consumed and control its costs. For this, there are special gas meters.
On average, 1000 are consumed per month. cubic meters gas, depending on the quadrature of the heated room. In the warm season, gas consumption is minimized, but in winter time there will be impressive amounts of payment, which in general makes necessary installation gas meter to save resources.
Installing a gas meter in the homes of owners of a gas meter is not a luxury, but a real necessity. With the help of a gas meter, the amount of liquefied or natural gas consumed is measured. That is, with the help of this apparatus, it is possible to keep records of energy resources, as well as stimulate consumers to save them.
The measured medium of gas meters is butane, propane, natural gas, as well as other non-aggressive and in their own way chemical composition inhomogeneous gases. Gas consumption is most often measured in cubic meters per hour. For example, the cost of purchasing the device itself and the cost of installing a gas meter on average pay off within a year.
Such a gas meter can be installed in the gasified room itself or in the room of the gasified building, if it has ventilation. Also, the installation of meters is allowed in a room that is adjacent to the gasified one, and if there is an opening between them.
The meter should be far away from the zone of moisture and heat release. It should be located in a well ventilated area. Undesirable installation sites are niches, as well as areas that do not receive fresh air. If the device is installed outside the building, then it must be under a canopy or in a cabinet, that is, sheltered from external influences.
Varieties of gas meters
The need to install a gas meter was appreciated by large enterprises and individual individuals. Today there are four types of gas meters: vortex and turbine flow meters, rotary and membrane.
The principle of operation of a diaphragm (chamber, membrane) counter is based on the fact that the gas is divided into volume fractions using various converting elements, and then they are cyclically summed.
The advantage of diaphragm counters: low cost, ease of manufacture, as well as a fairly accurate count even at not very great use gas. But such meters practically do not tolerate both permanent and temporary overloads.
A rotary meter is a chamber gas meter, which uses eight-shaped rotors as a converting element. At a rotary counter with small overall dimensions and mass, relatively high transmittance, it also withstands certain overloads and is durable. A rotary gas meter is made of expensive materials, requires careful fitting of parts, and is more expensive than other meters.
Turbine gas meters are gas meters in which the turbine wheel is driven into rotation by the action of a gas flow, and the number of revolutions is directly proportional to the volume of gas flowing through it. Counting mechanisms of a turbine gas meter in Lately are equipped with modems, with the help of which all indications are transmitted to the servers of the checking services.
Such a counter as a vortex counter uses the calculation of the frequency of occurrence of vortices near the body, which is flowed around by a gas flow, the frequency of which is proportional to the flow velocity. Hot-wire or piezoelectric detector sensors are used to detect vortices. There are such advantages of vortex counters: rather high maximum expenses relative to the diameter, wide measuring range, especially on big pressure, low sensitivity to contamination of this measured medium. Also, this meter needs an external power supply.
Calculation of gas consumption
According to the maximum throughput, gas meters are conditionally divided into industrial, domestic and household. Most often, it is practiced to install household gas meters with a capacity of 1-6 cubic meters per hour in offices, apartments, houses, as well as small furnaces for metering gas consumption. These are usually membrane (diaphragm, chamber), less often small rotary, ultrasonic, jet devices.
Appliances such as domestic appliances with a maximum throughput of 10 to 40 cubic meters per hour are used to account for gas consumption. technological installations, small boiler houses, etc. These are usually larger membrane (diaphragm, chamber), jet, rotary, ultrasonic gas meters.
Mostly industrial devices are used with a maximum throughput of more than 40 cubic meters per hour at the nodes of large consumers, such as industrial and agricultural enterprises, gas boilers, main networks (narrowing devices, ultrasonic, turbine, vortex gas meters), as well as metering stations of gas distribution networks (turbine, rotary, jet, ultrasonic, vortex gas meters).
Basically, the following types of markings for gas meters are distinguished:
- G-16 - throughput is from 16 to 25 cubic meters of gas;
- G-10 - 10 - 16 cu. meters;
- G-6 - 6 - 10 cu. meters;
- G-4 - 4 - 6 cu. meters;
- G-2.5 - approximately 2.5 - 4 cu. meters;
- G-1.6 - about 1.6 - 2.5 cu. meters.
To install a gas meter in an apartment, you need to choose a device depending on the number of gas appliances used. If a gas stove with 2 burners is used in the house, which consumes approximately 1 cu. meters per hour, then you can get by with a device marked G-1.6. In order to calculate the total fuel consumption, you need to look at the passport of each device that uses gas. There are left and right counters, depending on the direction of the passage of the energy carrier, and the choice of a certain type depends on the location of the stove and pipe in the kitchen.
The principle of operation of the gas meter
The gas meter consists of a hermetically sealed housing in which a measuring mechanism is built in, as well as a reading device. The principle of operation of a diaphragm gas metering apparatus based on the energy taken from the incoming gas is based. Alternate displacement of gas is performed from the working chambers when the diaphragms are moved. The crank mechanism converts the translational movement of the diaphragms into rotational, which is transmitted through the clutch to the reading device.
The design of the meters has a device with a bimetallic temperature compensator, which makes adjustments when the gas temperature affects the meter readings. Such a compensator, at gas temperatures that are different from the norm, changes the volumes of the measuring chambers and thereby the volume of consumed gas leads to standard conditions.
Do-it-yourself gas meter installation
The best option is to install a common house gas meter. Of course, the price of such a gas meter is much higher, but the costs will be much less than installation individual counter gas. If you do not have such an opportunity to install a gas meter for the whole house, read on.
If you only have a stove in use, it makes no sense to install a household meter at all. The payback period when the device is operated only with a gas stove can take up to 5 years. But the presence of a water heater and a gas stove is already a good option. Most The best decision- if you have a boiler, water heater and stove. The payback time of the meter will depend on the available gas equipment.
Submitting an application to the gas organization
We must not forget that gas equipment is a high-risk product. It follows from this that only a specialist who has certification should be engaged in the installation of the meter. Gas is a very dangerous material for non-professional people to deal with. Thus, self-installation is not welcome.
The gas supply organization controls the entire installation process so that there are no problems later during operation. The sealing of meters is carried out exclusively by those organizations that are allowed by law and that have special permits and licenses. After the work is completed, you should be given an act of successful "operation" in your hands.
The very first step is to submit an application for the installation of the device to the regional gas organization. Before installing the meter, you need to consult with a specialist about gas consumption in the apartment in order to select a device of the required throughput and the appropriate class.
In accordance with the received specifications and requirements for the installation of gas meters, you need to purchase the device. Intended for apartments and residential buildings, household gas meters differ from each other, first of all, by their "nominal value", that is, the amount of energy passed per unit of time. If the apartment is equipped only with a gas stove, then a device that passes two and a half cubic meters of gas per hour is suitable.
Gas meter installation project
When installing a gas meter, one more feature must be taken into account. Such is the development of a scheme for installing a gas meter and gas equipment. In this project, the bending radii of the pipe should be determined, the distance from the meter to the heat source, as well as some other parameters, should be taken into account. Quite often this provision is not fulfilled, but in vain!
To choose the installation location of the meter, you need to be guided by the following considerations:
- The meter is installed at a height of 1.6 meters.
- The passport of the device must indicate the distance from the gas equipment to the gas meter. If there is no such point, then the distance should be at least 0.8 meters from the household stove or heating equipment (boiler, heat generator). From the restaurant, cooking and heating stove, as well as the digester to the counter, the distance must be at least 1 meter.
- The gap between the meter and the wall should be at least 3-5 centimeters in order to avoid corrosion damage to the meter.
- The room itself must have natural ventilation, while it is undesirable to install the device in a stagnant zone.
- If the meter is installed inside the room, then it should be placed away from objects that radiate heat and moisture.
- The rules for installing gas meters still allow you to put the device in open form outside the building, but still, to extend the service life and safety, the device should be installed under a canopy in a cabinet or other structure, but it must necessarily have doors with locks and natural ventilation. It is advisable to install metering devices under the openings in the wall.
Installation of a gas meter
After contacting the gas service, an invoice will be drawn up for you, after payment of which a master will come to you and make sure to install a gas meter. At the entrance to the gas meter from gas pipe in any case, you need to install a special dust filter. The device can easily break down if such a filter is not installed.
Remember that during the installation of the meter, the documents already available for your gas equipment (gasification project, passport) are checked, so that there are no troubles, you need to put them in order in advance. After installation, you must immediately issue a passport for the gas meter. It often happens that the master in the passport puts a mark on the spot, but sometimes you need to contact the gas service. Next, the counter is sealed.
Specialist, management company, after installing the meters in two copies, transfers to the client an agreement for the installation of a metering device, then an act of acceptance of the work performed is signed, also in two copies, an act of putting the device into operation in three copies, and also in three copies an agreement for Maintenance metering device.
After that, the owner of the apartment goes to the DEZ or HOA and provides an act of commissioning, and then concludes an agreement to pay for the resource for the gas meter. It will be necessary to report the gas meter readings to the information and settlement center once a month, after which you will be informed of the amount of payment.
One of important points The use of the counter is to check the machine for correct operation. The manager of the company carries out an initial check, and then the owner of the gas meter does this, calling once every certain number of years (such data is indicated in the passport of the device) a representative of the Center for Standardization and Metrology, who checks the devices and makes the appropriate marks in the passport of the device.
Gas / Gas meters
Questions about the requirements for the installation site of a gas meter and gas wiring in an apartment come to EnergoVOPROS.ru almost every day. As far as possible, we try to answer them. We also collect and publish on our website the explanations given on these issues by representatives of authorities and specialists of gas supply organizations. Read a comment from a MOSGAZ employee on this topic.
What are the requirements for the installation site of a gas meter and gas wiring in an apartment?
Question: We plan to make repairs in the apartment, with the installation of a gas meter, we also want to separate the oven and hob in different corners of the kitchen: the hob will be located next to the gas main of the apartment. Are there distance restrictions from oven to the apartment gas main? What regulatory document regulates the layout of gas appliances in the kitchen and their safe location relative to the gas main?
Answer: Dear Anton Ivanovich! JSC "MOSGAZ" considered your appeal dated 03/03/2015 and reports the following.
Article 13 federal law dated November 23, 2009 No. 261 "On Energy Saving and Energy Efficiency Improvement and on Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation", owners of households using natural gas for domestic needs were required to ensure that, by January 1, 2015, the said facilities were equipped with individual and common (for communal apartments) metering devices for natural gas used, as well as putting the installed metering devices into operation.
However, from January 1, 2015, this requirement does not apply to facilities with a maximum natural gas consumption of less than 2 cubic meters. meters per hour, that is gas stoves. Of course, if desired, this category of consumers can also install gas meters, but it is important to remember that for them this procedure is optional.
Based on clause 3.5 of the Moscow regulation for the operation of the housing stock ZhNM-2004/03 "Gas pipelines and gas equipment of residential buildings", approved and put into effect by the Decree of the Government of Moscow dated 02.11.2004 No. 758-PP (hereinafter referred to as the Standard), when installing a gas hob and an independent gas oven, a second shut-off device must be installed.
To remake the intra-apartment gas wiring and install a gas meter, you need to contact Office No. 1 located at the address: Moscow, Grafsky lane, 12 (tel.: 8 (495) 687-63-71).
On-site management employees will determine the scope of work, draw up a sketch, issue an invoice and conclude an agreement. The work will be completed after payment of the invoice.
The calculation of the cost of these works is carried out on the basis of the Territorial Estimated Standards for Moscow (TSN-2001), put into effect by the Decree of the Government of Moscow of November 14, 2006 No. 900-PP.
At the same time, we inform you that the location of gas appliances (gas hob, gas oven) relative to the gas riser is not regulated.
When installing gas appliances, it is necessary to comply with clause 3.21 of the Regulation, the valve can be installed at the level of the connecting fitting at a distance of at least 20 cm to the side of the stove, and also with the upper wiring, the shut-off valve must be installed on the descent to the stove at a height of 1.5-1, 6 m from the floor. In this case, the distance from the gas riser to the tap must be at least 20 cm.
Sincerely, First Deputy CEO JSC MOSGAZ Koloskov Yury Evgenievich
