Connecting gas in an apartment: the procedure and rules for connecting gas in apartment buildings

COST OF THE SERVICE FOR THE CREATION OF A GAS CONNECTION PROJECT

Those who want to get a project for gas, first of all, ask themselves the question - how much does it cost to create a project? The price of developing a gas connection project consists of a set of works:

• departure and consultation of the customer at the facility;
• engineering and geodetic surveys (special conditions for New Moscow);
• implementation of the gasification project;
• project approval;
• performance of construction and installation works;
• comprehensive system testing;
• preparation of a set of executive and technical documentation and delivery of the commission.

When concluding an agreement with our company, you can be sure that the cost of the service will not increase during the work, the guarantee of this is indicated in the corresponding clause of the agreement.

The high level of interaction between all the structures of the ENERGOGAZ group of companies allows us to optimize the price of works. Many are frightened by the opinion that the gasification process may be delayed, accompanied by large financial losses that cannot be predicted at the initial stage of work. This state of affairs is possible if all the necessary work on the exploration, design, construction, supply of equipment is carried out by various organizations. After all, there will be no one to present the violations identified by the acceptance committee, since each contracting organization has completed its scope of work. Interacting with the group of companies "ENERGOGAZ", at the initial stage you will have a complete picture of the cost and timing of the service. Also, we have direct contracts with manufacturers of process equipment and gas pipes, which allows us to provide low prices.

THE TOTAL COST OF CREATING A GAS CONNECTION PROJECT IS CALCULATED ACCORDING TO THE ESTIMATE
An example from real practice.

An example of gasification of a house of 150 m2.

The average cost of gasification is 210,000 rubles. (favorably distinguishes from other companies by the fact that this cost includes absolutely all of the work listed above).

Additional payment is made for work on "technological connection" (in the region of 50,000 rubles, in accordance with the RF PP 1314 of December 30, 2013) to the territorial trust of the State Unitary Enterprise MO "MOSOBLGAZ". You also need to consider that a gas boiler and a gas stove are paid separately.In some cases, it is necessary to replace the ground loops and examine the smoke and ventilation ducts (the cost of each service in ENERGOGAZ Group does not exceed 6,000 rubles). The cost of boiler installation and commissioning depends on the type of boiler. For example, a set of works on installation and commissioning of a wall-mounted boiler Buderus U072-24K (Germany) is 12,000 rubles. The boiler heats up to 200 m2 of area and heats water for the hot water supply system.

ADVANTAGES OF WORKING WITH ENERGOGAZ Group of Companies

ENERGOGAZ Group of Companies is ready to offer gas connection design services both to large companies, the structure of which requires an individual approach to solving problems, and to an individual who needs help in gasifying their home. The interaction of all structures of our company allows us to optimize the work as much as possible, offering a very flexible pricing policy. The company guarantees compliance with the deadlines and bears full responsibility for the result. In case of non-fulfillment of obligations - a refund.

Direct deliveries of equipment from manufacturers will ensure its high-quality and long-term operation. And most importantly, already at the initial stage of cooperation, you will know exactly the amount of financial costs, the value of which will not change in the course of work.

Do I need the consent of all owners of the site for gasification

House for two owners. Each of the owners wants to arrange a separate gas connection. Do I need to get neighbor's consent? Such questions often come from visitors to EnergoVOPROS.ru. We are publishing explanations from specialists of the State Unitary Enterprise MO Mosoblagaz on this matter.

A house for two owners, is it necessary to coordinate the gasification of one's half with a neighbor?

Question: Tell me, please, I want to submit documents for the technological connection of a house, ½ of which belongs to me, and the other part belongs to a neighbor. The house is divided into two non-communicating parts and has separate entrances. Each of us owns a piece of land. The neighbor already has a technological gas connection on his part of the house. I want to set up a separate process connection from the central distribution without using a neighbor's connection. Do I need a neighbor's permission to connect gas to my part of the house? And, if so, on what basis?

Answer: Good afternoon! According to Article 209 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Civil Code of the Russian Federation), the owner owns the rights to own, use and dispose of his

property, he has the right, at his own discretion, to perform any actions with respect to his property that do not contradict the law and do not violate the rights and legally protected interests of other persons.

In accordance with Article 244 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Civil Code of the Russian Federation), property owned by two or more persons belongs to them on the basis of common ownership. The property may be in common ownership with the determination of the share of each of the owners in the ownership right (share ownership) or without the determination of such shares (joint ownership).

Articles 247 and 252 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation provide that the possession and use of property in shared ownership is carried out by agreement of all its participants, and if agreement is not reached, in the manner established by the court.

Connection of capital construction facilities to gas distribution networks is carried out in accordance with the Rules for connection (technological connection) of capital construction facilities to gas distribution networks, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated December 30, 2013 No. 1314.

If the property is in shared ownership, then the rules for ownership and use of property are regulated by Article 246 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation: the disposal of property in shared ownership is carried out by agreement of all its participants;

Article 247 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation establishes that the possession and use of property in shared ownership is carried out by agreement of all its participants, and if agreement is not reached, in the manner established by the court.

If the property is registered as an apartment, then according to Article 290 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the owners of apartments in an apartment building own the common premises of the house, the supporting structures of the house, mechanical, electrical, sanitary and other equipment outside or inside the apartment, serving more than one apartment.

Thus, in the case of laying a gas pipeline along the facade of a house, on the territory of a land plot that is in common shared ownership with another owner, it is necessary to obtain the written consent of the owner of such property. (Answer from Gorgaz)

contract processing procedure

12.08.2003, 11:02 # A flagrant violation of the legislation of the Russian Federation Article 274 of Chapter 17 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (this is the chapter on land ownership) states: "Laying operational lines, power lines and communications, pipelines, providing water supply and melioration without the consent of the owner of the land is prohibited »in addition, restrictions are imposed on the laying territory, i.e. you cannot dig at a distance of 6 meters from the pipe and do not have the right to erect buildings and lay communications there. And even more so, her signature should be under the gasification project for neighbors. states: "The owner of a land plot has the right to use at his own discretion everything that is above and below the surface of this plot" ...

Ownership documents

If you are not the sole owner of the land, then the consent to gasification of all adult owners is required. Your rights and the rights of other owners can be represented by third parties by proxy issued in a notary's office.

If the connection of your house to the gas distribution network will be carried out from a neighboring site, the consent of the owner of the site is required. However, power concession is possible only if the neighboring building is connected to the same gas distribution network without less than 5 years and no technical contraindications to the connection of a new consumer.

A land plot scheme (situational plan) can be obtained free of charge from the local administration, as well as from the BTI and cadastral engineers, however, you will have to pay for their services.The calculation of the planned gas consumption is compiled by the contractor's employees (GRO). If it does not exceed 5 cu. m. per hour, no document is required.

Required Documentation

For consideration in the gas distribution organization (GDO) of an application for the technological connection of a residential building to the gas distribution network, the following documentation must be collected:

• documents confirming the applicant's ownership of the house and land;
• a document confirming the compliance of the technical conditions of the house with the gas distribution network (TU);
• a copy of the passport;
• scheme of the land plot and adjacent territory;
• calculation of the planned gas consumption;
• gasification project.

The application also indicates the location of the house that needs to be connected to the gas main, the applicant's passport details and postal address, email address or phone number for communication. The application can be submitted in electronic format on the GDO website, sent by mail or at the center for receiving documents from the gas distribution organization. For the unreliability of the documents attached by the applicant in electronic format, the legislation provides for administrative liability. The address of the GDO can be found in the local government or found on the Internet, indicating the name of the subject of the Russian Federation.

Stages of gasification at home

The contractor reviews the application within three days from the date of receipt. If the applicant has not fulfilled all the requirements, a notification is sent to him that within 20 days it is necessary to provide all the missing information and documents. Consideration of the application is suspended for this time.

When not everyone is at home, or why there is no gas in new buildings

About a dozen new buildings commissioned in Omsk are still standing without gas.Why is this happening and can apartment owners do something in such cases? Vecherka decided to look into these issues.

Reason one. To whom is the network?

The networks have been built, but not registered as property. Consequently, if there is no owner, then there is simply no one to conclude a contract for the maintenance of the gas pipeline.

In such cases, the owners of apartments in the building must submit claims for the lack of gas to the developer company. Having built and commissioned a residential building, they either do not transfer engineering networks to anyone at all and they become ownerless, or transfer them to the HOA or the management company. They, in turn, sometimes cannot provide proper maintenance and operation.

Such a situation has developed, for example, in houses along Perelet Street - 14, bldg. one; d. 20; d. 22; 22, bldg. one.

Comment

Galina Morozova, senior at house number 20 on the street. Flight:

- The developer of our house - Valery Kokorin's company - did not draw up the network. We appealed to all possible authorities, even wrote to the blog of the President of the Russian Federation. Now the question is as follows: the networks do not have an owner, so there is simply no one to conclude an agreement with them. The management company "Mikroraion 6" has worked with us for a year, but has not yet concluded an agreement. As the director of the Criminal Code, Nikolai Mironenko, told me, he is not going to take nets, because he "does not need this appendicitis."

The last reply came to us from the Department of City Administration of the Administration. There, our house and house No. 22 are offered to determine the owner of the networks, after which the gas can be connected. The neighboring house - 22, building 1 - has created an HOA, and it will be connected in the near future.

The second reason. Comrades, whose apartment?

Ownership of an apartment in a new building is not registered.In other words, it just hasn't been bought yet. And an apartment in a new building can be sold for more than one year. As a result, there is simply no one to conclude a gas supply agreement with. Such situations arose in new buildings: in the village on the street. Zavertyaeva, on the street. Krasnoznamennaya, d. 26/4, on the street. Tyulenina, 14, in the village. Zagorodny, 14 and others.

Comment

Leonid Afanasyev, chief engineer of Omskoblgaz:

- In fact, the developer and the supplier must agree among themselves. Here is an example. The house has been rented out. But when you start walking around the apartments, it turns out that 20-30 percent live there. And the supplier needs contracts with 100% owners. If there is not at least one representative of the apartment, the start-up of gas is prohibited. The situation is deadlocked.

We launched the last houses with the participation of the management company, which provided access to the apartments. Where there was no one, we simply cut off the gas supply wire and put a plug. And who was - that was launched.

Reason three. Not all houses

Example. A citizen of Kazakhstan came to Omsk, bought an apartment and went back. It is impossible to enter the apartment. Therefore, it is impossible to bring gas into it, seal the meters, put plugs.

Such a careless owner leaves his neighbors without gas. So the special services have to check all the apartments in the new house and only then turn on the gas. And the neighbors can only wait until the missing owner appears and his apartment is checked.

Comment

Antonina Komleva, Head of PIK-Comfort Management Company:

- In Kristall, we have several houses without gas, and each has its own reason. In the house on Komarova Ave., No. 15, for example, all risers are connected, except for one. There, the tenant did not provide access to the apartment. But he will arrive in May, the date is known.As soon as he arrives, the gas will be connected immediately.

Today, the city authorities have no legal leverage to resolve such situations. In other words, they do not have the right to interfere in the developer's business, to control its work. And the authorities have no grounds for this either. This means that the buyers of apartments in the new house can either rely on the honesty of the builders, or purchase apartments in houses equipped with electric stoves.

On a note!

- collect a dossier on the developer: his work experience in the market, objects, reputation. It is better to trust only trusted companies.

- find out directly from the developer whether gas will be supplied to the house, and if so, in what time frame.

- find out if the engineering networks to your future home have been put into operation and to whom they are transferred (or are planned to be transferred) for maintenance.

- if the house is rented out, talk to its inhabitants. Ask about the quality of construction, the conscientiousness of the developer, how the communications function.

Commissioning works

After starting the gas, you will need to contact the organization with which you have signed a service agreement for all provided gas equipment in order to put this equipment into operation. This will be one of the most important conditions for the warranty service of your equipment within the prescribed periods in the warranty service agreement (what warranty period will be set depends on your place of residence, on average, the warranty period for servicing gas equipment is from 1 to 3 years)

You will also need documents to perform a heat engineering calculation, which will help determine the required boiler capacity to provide heating and hot water supply to a private house (for this, you can contact the specialists from the housing and communal services):

• floor plans of all heated premises of the house with an explication, as well as an indication of heights and areas;
• types and number of points of hot water intake (such as washstands, baths, showers, etc.);
• description of the possible use of a gas boiler for technological needs.

The owner of a private house has the right to make all the approvals either independently or contact an organization that deals with the issues of gasification of the house and the installation of a gas pipeline.

Categories of gasified objects

According to Decree No. 1314 of the Government of Russia, homeowners need to find out how much it costs now to bring gas into their homes by contacting the regional gas distribution service.

First of all, household expenses for technological connection depend on the volume of gasification works. In this regard, three categories of capital objects have been identified.

The first category of objects. The first category includes private households whose total consumption of natural gas does not exceed 5 m³/h.

Small businesses are equated to them, the technological equipment of which consumes no more than 15 m³ / h of a mixture of propane and butane. Those. the lowest fee for connection to the gas distribution network is charged for cottages with an area of ​​less than 300 m² and small businesses from the public utility area.

The installation work on the supply of the gas pipeline will be completed at the border of the site. The layout of the gas pipe for the consuming equipment of the household on its territory is carried out according to a separate project

The possible scope of work on laying connecting gas communications to the household of the first category is limited:

• the greatest distance from the main gas distributor to the equipment consuming gas is less than 200 m;
• gas pressure in the gas supply source - up to 0.3 MPa.

In addition, the laying of introductory gas pipelines is carried out without the construction of reduction points (pressure reduction) of the main natural gas.

The fee for connecting the gas pipeline for objects of the first category is 20,000-50,000 rubles (clause 8 of the appendix to the order of the Federal Tariff Service of the Russian Federation No. 101-e / 3 of 04/28/2014). The exact price is determined by the local GDO according to the conditions in the given territory, but cannot exceed 50,000 rubles.

The second category of objects. Among the objects of the second category are households, the connection of which requires distribution gas pipelines and / or the creation of points for reducing the main gas. Their estimated gas consumption is higher than the norm for objects of the first category, a higher gas supply pressure is required (i.e. 0.6 MPa or more), etc.

Compliance with the cost of connection in the first category is observed if the pipeline is inserted into a low-pressure gas pipeline. If gas reduction is required, the connection price will exceed 50 thousand rubles.

In the private housing sector, objects falling under the second category usually have an area of ​​more than 300 m².For their gasification, standardized tariff rates are applied, calculated according to the methodology developed by the Federal Tariff Service of the Russian Federation (Appendix to Order No. 101-e / 3 of April 28, 2014).

It should be noted that applicants for consumption volumes of natural or artificial gas from 300 m³/h and above are required to coordinate gas connections with the GDS, which has a technological connection with the contractor's gas pipeline.

Approval of the amounts of tariffs for connecting gas to households of the second category is made by the local executive authority of the REC (ie the regional energy commission).

The third category of objects. The capital construction objects of the third category include farms that need an individual gasification project. For them, the amount is determined according to the design and estimate documentation, which has previously passed the examination.

The amount of expenses for gasification for households of the third category is established by the REC, related to the location of the economy connected to the main gas.

The prices for laying the gas pipeline along the section from the border entrance are not the same for different companies. However, it is worth considering the need for numerous gas project approvals. Full-fledged gasification will happen faster with an experienced contractor

The following conditions are considered to be characteristic features of the applicants' facilities in need of gasification:

• planned consumption of natural gas from 500 m³/h;
• work on connection to the gas pipeline requires the pipeline to be laid out through the forest fund, along rocky soils, swamps and water obstacles;
• gas pipeline installation work requires passing through obstacles that force the use of horizontal directional drilling.

Those.According to Government Decree No. 1314, there are actually no rigid prices for the technological connection of applicants to the gas network. These are vertical risers through which gas is transported to the corresponding equipment in the living room.

When moving it into the house, a number of safety requirements must be met. These include the following:

• the presence of independent, isolated premises;
• good ventilation with exhaust in hallways with high ceilings that are fire resistant;
• non-explosive device designed to inject natural gas.

Due to the fact that the gas is twice as heavy as air, if there is a leak, it fills the basement and is able to travel considerable distances. Even a small leak in an apartment can cause death by asphyxiation or cause a fire.

Gasification project

Project documentation is compiled on the basis of information about specifications. The list of documents includes the following information:

• the place of entry of the gas pipe into a private house;
• wiring communications throughout the facility and inside the house;
• a list of necessary work when connecting;
• security measures;
• work estimates;
• recommendations on the technical characteristics of gas equipment.

Project of gasification of a private house

To develop design documents, the designer on site takes the necessary measurements, while taking into account the wishes of the customer regarding the location of gas appliances. The gasification project can be drawn up by specialists of the gas distribution company, but the law provides for the possibility of attracting third-party companies to develop the project, but their services will cost more. However, in this case, the documentation will be compiled faster.When contacting a third-party design organization, it is necessary to check whether it has a license to carry out these works.

Previously, a project for the distribution of gas throughout the house was needed only for buildings of 3 floors and above with 1 family living. However, according to SP 402.1325800.2018, from 06/06/2019, the gas supply project will become mandatory in other cases when connecting to gas.

Agreement with a construction and installation organization

When all the necessary documents have been signed and all matters have been settled with GorGaz and the design organization, you are sent to the installation organization, which will subsequently carry out all the necessary construction and installation work. Do not hesitate to check her license as well, since it is the installation organization that should hand over the work to GorGaz, therefore, an entry in the GorGaz registry should testify to its existence.

Note: in most cases, installation organizations have a license to perform not only installation, but also design work, in this case, if you order the project directly from the installation organization, then the cost of gasification at home is reduced by 25-30% of the total amount.

When you have agreed with the installers the terms and cost of the work, be sure to sign a contract with them, so that in which case you have at least some guarantees from the contractor.

The contract will contain guarantees and obligations on the part of the installation organization.

Guarantees in the process of laying the external and internal gas pipeline:

• in the production of construction and installation works, the contractor must have all the necessary fire extinguishing equipment, as well as a protective screen necessary to protect the surface of the walls from heating;
• after the final payments for the work performed, the installation organization hands over to you the executive and technical documentation;
• the construction and installation organization undertakes to timely and efficiently perform all work under this contract.

During commissioning:

• to establish optimal modes of gas equipment to ensure the rational use of gas;
• instruct you in the correct operation of the equipment;
• if it is impossible to debug the operation of gas equipment or individual units, establish the reason for such an impossibility to fix it in the act and suspend work until the identified deficiencies are eliminated;
• hand over the result of the work with the execution of a bilateral act for the work performed.

We draw up a gas supply project

After drawing up the specifications, a gas supply project should be developed. This is an expensive procedure and there are 2 options for its development. You can either contact a resource supplying organization or a private company. The first option is cheaper, the second is faster.

If the project is being done by a third party organization and not a resource provider, be sure to draw up a contract with them, check all licenses and read the reviews of their previous clients

Be careful if you want to make a project with the help of a private company, it must be a member of self-regulatory organizations and have the appropriate license.

To complete the project you will need:

• the situational plan of the site issued by the local government;
• technical specifications received by you;
• plan of the house indicating the location of gas-using equipment;
• gas-using devices planned for installation (passports for them), if they have already been purchased;
• geological research;
• measurements of distances between structures and communications on the site;
• site measurements.

Again, you should check the full list of documents and necessary research directly with the organization.

Be sure to enter into agreements with the company involved in the drafting and development of the project, while keeping a copy and the original of this document.

The gas supply project includes complex technical calculations for gas consumption to supply connected equipment. These surveys are carried out first. Then the specialist will plan the transportation of gas along the site from the tie-in point to the house.

The project is coordinated with the organization that issued the specifications. At the same time, it is necessary to provide for the possibility of making changes, because in case of refusal, otherwise the entire document will have to be completely redone.

In general, the developed plan includes the following information:

• a full-fledged floor plan of the house in a section;
• schematic representation of the network from the point of connection to gas-using devices;
• points of mounting nodal connections;
• advice and recommendations of a specialist;
• materials and equipment.

Often, the coordination lasts for more than one week, and the resource supplying organization may wrap up the development if it does not comply with the current standards and operational features of gasification.

Features of gasification of residential buildings

With the help of gas in the house, you can successfully organize heating, hot water heating, and cooking.Gas equipment is reliable and diverse, and the cost of blue fuel is usually lower than the use of electricity, solid or liquid fuel for the same purposes.

In addition, gas lines fail extremely rarely, but power outages are common. Stocks of firewood, coal, diesel fuel and other similar energy carriers have to be constantly replenished.

The main problem with natural gas is its danger to human health and its ability to explode. Even a small leak can lead to poisoning or an explosion. That is why the requirements for the installation of gas communications are very high, you should not even think about doing all the work yourself.

In order to properly introduce gas into a private house, a special unit is used, which is called a reducer for reducing gas pressure.

To begin with, experts do not recommend saving on materials or system elements. Pipe laying of dubious quality and unprofessional installation are unacceptable.

Gas pipes almost always need to be laid in an open way (except for underground sections of the highway). They cannot be hidden under any decorative elements to improve the interior.

It is not recommended to introduce a gas pipe into the house through the thickness of the foundation; for this purpose, a hole is made in the outer wall and a sleeve is inserted into it for protection

It is recommended to avoid plug connections whenever possible. All places where pipes are connected must be located in such a way that at any time the point of contact can be examined and repaired if necessary.

Do not lay gas pipes inside the walls or in the thickness of the foundation.This rule also applies to other elements such as architraves, door frames, window frames, partitions, etc.

In some cases, it is allowed to lay a gas pipe in a wall niche, but this point must be clearly reflected and justified in the project. Special requirements are also imposed on the slope of the pipes. Horizontally, the position of the line is allowed to deviate by only 3 mm towards gas appliances.

Vertically, no deviations are allowed, but the riser may have a slight slope: no more than 2 mm per meter. It should not pass through living quarters, through a toilet or bathroom. The gas riser should be located in the stairwell, often through the kitchen.

You will also have to carefully monitor the installation of shut-off valves. So, the position of the central axis of the plug must be strictly parallel to the wall along which the pipe runs. When choosing the position of the valve, make sure that the position of the locking device is not blocked by the wall. From the ceiling and from the walls, the gas pipe should be located at a distance of 100 mm.

Gas pipes are fixed along the wall not close, but at a short distance so that communications remain available for routine inspection and repair

The gap between the wall and the pipe can vary from the size of the pipe radius to a limit value of 100 mm. This clearance is necessary so that the structure can be easily examined. A distance of 2.2 m should be maintained from the floor. Gas pipes are placed on special strong supports, sagging of the structure is unacceptable.

Therefore, it is necessary to make sure that there are no gaps between the bracket and the pipe.All these important points are taken into account in the design of the gas supply system, which must first be drawn up by specialist engineers.

Gas pipes should be laid at least 30 cm from the electrical panel, and at least 25 cm from open wiring. From the hidden cable should retreat at least five centimeters.

What facilities are allowed to be gasified?

Before you start fussing about supplying gas to an object, find out if it can be done.

According to Federal Law No. 69, it is possible to gasify: private-type houses, as well as apartment buildings put into operation; sites with buildings that have not yet been put into operation, at the stage of completion of their design; country and garden houses in the presence of capital structures (foundation); organizations.

At the local GDO, you can clarify whether and under what conditions it is possible to connect your building to gas supply.

It is possible to conduct gas to the house even before the end of its construction, however, the gas will be launched only after the building is put into operation.

Based on RF PP No. 549, it is impossible to connect to the gas supply network:

• objects of non-permanent structure that do not have a foundation, that is, garages, summer-type kitchens, greenhouses, and so on;
• some apartments in an apartment building, provided there is no gas in the whole building;
• country and garden houses without a capital foundation and registration in the USRN.

If you have found your object in the top list, congratulations, you can start the process of preparing and collecting documents.

Safety regulations

In any construction, it is necessary to follow the established standards. It is thanks to compliance with these standards that people gain confidence in the safety of their home or their stay at industrial facilities.For example, the gas supply rules give instructions on where to lay the pipeline to the houses, its distance from the ground or underground.

The rules must be followed when installing gas equipment, as well as operating the facility. Gas supply will be laid in residential buildings only when building standards are met during their construction.

All components must meet certain requirements. For example, steel pipes installed indoors must be different from those installed outside the home. Rubber or rubber-fabric hoses may be used if they are sufficiently resistant to the passing gas. The pipes are connected by welding. A threaded connection can also be used, but then a shut-off valve is mounted.

To ensure the safety of gas supply, special rules have been developed for the design, construction and operation of supply systems, as well as the production and use of equipment. According to them, the requirements are set:

Connection cost

The state is trying to control the prices for gas connection services so that they are accessible to most segments of the population. Otherwise, this will lead to an increase in the number of illegally connected equipment. This is a direct security risk. And not only the owners who took the risk, but also their neighbors.

Installation of the stove by a qualified craftsman

There are no regulated rates for work. We can only say that the cost of connecting a gas stove ranges from 1 to 3 thousand rubles. A number of factors affect the final price. Among them:

• the region where the customer lives;
• the price of the company where the owner of the property applies;
• the complexity of connecting in a particular house or apartment.

Work is paid upon completion. You should definitely ask a specialist for a check, which is also a document on officially performed work. If the installation was carried out by third-party specialists, calling a gas service employee to check the correct connection will also cost money.
