Urgently check the meters: Ukrainians may receive inflated bills for electricity and water.

In June, some Ukrainians may not be able to submit meter readings

In June, some Ukrainians may witness an increase in utility costs due to the inability to submit meter readings.

In May, some consumers will be unable to submit readings for hot water and thermal energy meters due to the removal of the meter from subscriber accounting, reports 24 Kanal.

According to a representative of the utility services:

The meter verification will only be conducted if the verification is completed on time. According to Ukrainian legislation, apartment heat and hot water meters must be checked every four years.

To find out the date of the next verification, one can check the data in the meter's passport or verification certificate. Verification deadlines are often indicated on utility bills.

If the consumer wishes to carry out the meter verification themselves:

They must order the service from a licensed company. After the verification is completed, they need to present documents to the service provider to update the data.

It is also necessary to remember about mandatory verification in the case of gas and cold water meters. The cost of this service is paid by the consumer, and the term depends on the type of meter.

The importance of adhering to meter verification rules

During the verification of meters, adherence to all rules and deadlines plays a key role in ensuring the accuracy of accounting for consumed resources. Therefore, it is worth planning and executing this procedure in a timely manner to avoid additional financial costs in the future.
