Shutdowns of hot water in Moscow at addresses. A bit of history and reasons
Publishing interactive graphs of hot water shutdowns at addresses in Moscow began about five years ago. Prior to this, MOEK, at best, posted Excel files on the Internet, with lists of houses and streets. Well, until the mid-2000s, it was possible to find out about hot water outages only from announcements in the entrance. And in this sense, of course, over the past ten years, the capital's communal services have come a long way.
Why is there a hot water problem? The fact is that the system of supplying heat and hot water in Moscow was formed in the Soviet period and is characterized by extreme centralization. From large thermal power plants, the coolant (they say in a simple way, steam) is supplied directly to the houses. And only in very rare cases do houses have their own boiler rooms (heating boilers have been installed).
As a result, in order to carry out the necessary preventive and repair work, it is necessary to turn off the coolant supply (and hot water is heated from it) for several quarters at once. Otherwise, the central heat pipe cannot be repaired. As a result, residents suffer. They have to sit for weeks without hot water.
Hot water shutdowns - dates and dates for the start of shutdowns in 2019
Hot water shutdowns in Moscow in 2019 begin on May 13. During shutdowns, preventive work and overhaul are carried out at district heating stations and central heating points. Repair is carried out using modern energy-saving technologies. Diagnosis of networks, hydraulic tests, and, if necessary, re-laying of pipelines are carried out.
A few years ago, Muscovites lived without hot water for almost a month, then three weeks (21 days), then 2 weeks (14 days), and today the maximum period for turning off hot water is 10 days.
Why are hot water shutdowns in summer in Moscow?
Hot water shutdowns are associated with the so-called "hydraulic tests" tests. They are carried out following the results of a repair campaign on heating systems. What for?
Here is how the public utilities themselves formulate the goals of hydraulic tests:
checking the strength and density of pipelines and their elements, including all welded joints, as well as identifying weak spots caused by corrosion and fatigue of the pipeline metal;
- checking the quality of repairs performed on heating networks;
- detection of defects and elimination of the causes of heat and coolant losses;
- ensuring trouble-free operation of heating network equipment, reliable heat supply to consumers during the heating period.
What does the legislation say about the rights of citizens in connection with the mass shutdowns of hot water in the summer?
The current legislation of the Russian Federation forms the requirements for the organization of hot water supply in apartment buildings as follows.
Permissible duration of interruption of hot water supply:
- 8 hours (total) within 1 month;
- 4 hours at a time;
- in case of an accident on a dead end highway - 24 hours;
- during preventive maintenance (once a year);
- shutdown of hot water systems should not exceed 10 days.
How is the payment for hot water when disconnected?
In the summer, when hot water is turned off for scheduled repairs, a recalculation must be made for consumers - hot water is not charged at this time.
In case of an unscheduled shutdown, which is associated with a malfunction of engineering equipment - both main and in-house, a recalculation is also made. If the owner of the housing (premises) did not receive hot water in the required volume or there were interruptions in its supply, he can count on the recovery of moral damage and the payment of a penalty provided for by the Law on the Protection of Consumer Rights. It is 3% of the monthly tariff for each day of non-fulfillment of obligations by the management company or supplier organization.
A deviation from the standard values by 3 degrees during the day and 5 degrees at night (from 0 o'clock to 5 in the morning) is allowed. If the temperature of "hot" water is below 40 degrees, you can pay for it as for cold water.

The spring of 2017, which became the coldest in the past few decades, forced the power engineers of Moscow and St. Petersburg to adjust the hot water shutdown schedules for annual preventive maintenance of heating and water supply systems.
Due to unfavorable weather conditions, the heating season in the two capitals was extended, and the start of work was delayed by an average of two weeks.
When will they start turning off hot water in Moscow: terms, scope of work
A few days ago, heating began to be turned off in residential buildings and social facilities of Muscovites, and on May 22, an updated schedule for the interruption of hot water supply in the capital came into force. The adjusted hot water shutdown schedule in Moscow in 2017 can be viewed on the MIPC (Moscow United Energy Company) website. It shows when and in which areas shutdowns will take place.
It is known that in addition to diagnostics and repair of pipelines, hydraulic tests will also be carried out during shutdowns. In addition, specialists will have to check the operability of the equipment installed in district heating and pumping stations, as well as in central heating points. As a rule, all works take about 14 days. Works at all metropolitan facilities must be completed by August 25, 2017. There will be no planned shutdowns in the future.
According to MIPC, in the course of preventive maintenance, it is planned to check the operability of approximately 33,000 residential buildings. By the way, 3,000 residential buildings in Moscow will not be affected by hot water shutdown in the summer of 2017.
