Meter Verification: Can You Refuse and How It Affects the Amounts in Bills.

Consumers of utilities must regularly check the meters that measure the consumption of hot water and thermal energy. This is not only a legal requirement but also a guarantee of accurate accounting and billing for services.

The company "Obltelokommunenergo" reminded that consumers are responsible for timely checking of metering devices.

The company noted that consumers can choose a certified organization to conduct the check. The cost of the procedure can range from 350 to 1000 hryvnias.

The company emphasized that neglecting meter verification can have negative consequences. The lack of verification data leads to the use of alternative calculation methods, which increases the amounts in bills.

After verification, consumers must provide information to utility services. This guarantees the accuracy of calculations.

Kyivteploenergo previously reported that before the start of the heating season is the best time to check meters.
