The formula for calculating water heating in the utility bill. How is the hot water bill calculated? What is hot water heating. What is DHW thermal energy? Why heating and hot water are considered different lines

04.09.2022

A reader of the Leninsky district of Chelyabinsk turned to the editorial office of our portal with a request to help her figure out - what will the indicated amount in the receipt go to and on what grounds was the installation of cold water made?

The second question arose because, as far as we know,

“The GTC can be established by the developer of a residential building - during the construction of an apartment building, or as part of the implementation of the federal law of July 21, 2007 No. 185-FZ “On the Housing and Utilities Reform Assistance Fund” during the overhaul of an apartment building, or as part of the implementation of the federal law RF dated November 23, 2009. No. 261-FZ "On energy saving ..." until 07/01/2012. - by decision of the general meeting of owners of the premises of an apartment building, and after 01.07.2012. - MUP POVV "(information from the site of MUP POVV).

As the reader explained, the house in which she is the owner of a one-room apartment was built in 1965 and has never been overhauled. Accordingly, the engineering networks of the building are not in the best condition. Will residents have to pay for water leaks under a common house?

But back to first question:

The receipt indicates that the payment is for the installation of the operating system, and will you have to pay again for the common house water meter?

The receipt looks like this:

Contacted for clarification branch of settlement centers LLC RCC of Chelyabinsk by phone 211-55-11. The specialists explained that the calculation is made not only for the installation of the operating system, but also for the common house water meter itself.

MUP "POVV" offers pay bills in two ways:

1) Pay in a lump sum payment by the 20th day of the month following the settlement one, thus reimbursing the costs for setting your share for (GPU) without paying interest for installments.

2) Installment payment for 5 years or less installment period. When providing an installment plan, interest is accrued on the balance of the unpaid amount in the amount of the refinancing rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation in force on the date of accrual. Interest will be calculated from the 2nd receipt.

When paying the receipt in installments, the owner can pay any amount, but not less than the payment indicated in the line “Minimum payment amount (with installments for 5 years).

The cost of the OPU and the cost of its installation did not seem large. But please take into account that this is the Leninsky district of Chelyabinsk, a specific building with about 120 apartments. What will be the payment in your house, your receipts will show.

Second question- the legitimacy of the installation has not yet been clarified. Unfortunately, it was not possible to contact the lawyers of the MUP POVV company at the specified number and get clarifications - no one picked up the phone. We will call.

Answers to the most popular questions on common house meters (OPU):

Why is the installation decision not made at the general meeting?

From 07/01/2012 according to law No. 261-FZ, a resource supply organization (MUP POVV) is obliged to install an operating system in houses. At the same time, the owners of the premises of the house have the right to make a decision at the general meeting of the owners of the premises of the house on the installation of the OPU, the choice of a contractor, the cost of installing the OPU, the procedure for paying for the installation of the OPU, obtaining technical specifications for the installation of the OPU in MUP POVV and submit this protocol of the general meeting to MUP POVV about the decision taken.

Why weren't the owners notified about the installation of the OPU?

MUP POVV in receipts for payment for cold water and water services places information on the commissioning of the operating facility and the volume of water released to the house in the billing month.

What documents confirm the installation of the OPU? Why were the owners not invited to sign the act of commissioning the operating facility?

The document confirming the installation of the OPU is the Commissioning Certificate of the OPU, signed by representatives of the resource supply organization (MUP POVV) and the housing organization serving the apartment building.

The housing organization serving the apartment building is a person authorized by the owners of the premises of the apartment building, therefore the owners are not invited to sign the act of commissioning the OPU.

Is there a contract for the installation of an operating room? What is the amount of installation of the OPU? Who will pay for this installation of the OPU?

The contract for the installation of the operating system is concluded by the person on whose initiative the installation of the operating unit is carried out.

The installation costs of the operating system include the cost of the metering device itself, the cost of the equipment included in the metering unit and the cost of installation work. The cost of installation of the operating system, depending on the brand and caliber of the metering device, is from 20,000 rubles. up to 50,000 rubles

When installing the OPU by the developer of the house - the installation is carried out at the expense of the developer's funds.

When installing the OPU according to law No. 185, the installation is carried out at the expense of budgetary funds allocated for the overhaul of the house.

When installing the GTC by decision of the owners of the premises of the house - the installation is carried out at the expense of the owners of the premises (including at the expense of the item "repair and maintenance").

When installing the GTC according to Law No. 261, the installation is carried out at the expense of MUE POVV, with subsequent reimbursement of expenses by the owners of the premises of the house in a lump sum payment or in installments, taking into account interest for providing an installment payment in the amount of the refinancing rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation for a period of not more than 5 years.

Who takes the testimony of the OPU? How are testimonials transmitted? Can the owners be present during the taking of evidence?

The housing organization serving the apartment building, on a monthly basis from the 20th-23rd day, takes the readings of the OPU and transfers them to the MUP POVV. MUP POVV periodically takes control readings of the OPU in order to control the reliability of the transferred OPU readings.

The Chairman of the Council of the apartment building, elected by the decision of the general meeting of the owners of the premises, has the right to be present at the taking of testimony of the OPU.

In the near future, residents will begin to pay for hot water according to a new principle: separately for the water itself and separately for heating it.
So far, enterprises and organizations are already using the new rules, but the old accounting remains for residents. Due to communal confusion, housing and communal services refuse to pay heat power companies. Fontanka understood the complexities of a two-component tariff.

Before

Until 2014, the population and business structures paid for hot water as follows. For the calculation, it was necessary to know only the consumed number of cubic meters. It was multiplied by the tariff and by the figure artificially deduced by officials - 0.06 Gcal. It is this amount of thermal energy, according to their calculations, that is necessary to heat one cubic meter of water. As Irina Bugoslavskaya, Deputy Chairman of the Tariffs Committee, told Fontanka, the “0.06 Gcal” indicator was derived based on the following data: the temperature of the hot water provided should be 60-75 degrees, the temperature of the cold water used to prepare hot water should be 15 degrees in winter, 5 degrees in summer. According to Bugoslavskaya, the committee officials made several thousand measurements, taking information from metering devices - the artificially deduced figure was confirmed.

In connection with the use of this method of payment, there was a problem associated with risers and heated towel rails connected to the hot water system. They heat the air, that is, they consume Gcal. From October to April, this thermal energy is added to heating, but this cannot be done in summer. For a year now, a system has been operating in St. Petersburg, according to which payment for heat supply can be charged only during the heating period. As a result, unaccounted for heat is generated.

Solution

In May 2013, federal officials came up with a way out of the situation of unaccounted heating with heated towel rails and risers. To this end, it was decided to introduce a two-component tariff. Its essence lies in the separate payment for cold water and its heating - thermal energy.

There are two types of heating system. One implies that the pipe with hot water departs from the one intended for heating, the other implies that for hot water water is taken from the cold water supply system and heated.

If hot water is taken from the same pipe as heating, then payment for it will be calculated taking into account the costs associated with chemical treatment, staff salaries, and equipment maintenance. If cold water is taken for heating by the State Unitary Enterprise Vodokanal of St. Petersburg, then the payment for it is taken according to the tariff - now it is a little more than 20 rubles.

The tariff for heating is calculated based on how much resources were spent on the production of thermal energy.

Confused dwellers

Since January 1, 2014, a two-component tariff has been introduced for consumers who do not belong to the "population" group, that is, for organizations and enterprises. In order for the townspeople to be able to pay according to the new principle, it is necessary to amend the regulations. Paying under the new system is prohibited by the rules for the provision of utilities. Since residents are still paying under the old scheme, housing organizations serving homes with non-residential premises have a new headache.

The calculation of payment for hot water supply consists of two parts, or components, each of which is allocated in a separate line in the receipt - DHW and DHW heating. This is due to the fact that in the houses of Akademichesky water preparation is carried out directly by the management company in individual heating points of each house. In the process of preparing hot water, two types of communal resources are used - cold water and thermal energy.

The first component, the so-called

DHW supply- this is directly the volume of water that passed through the hot water supply meter and was consumed indoors in a month. Or, if the readings were not taken, or the meter turned out to be faulty or the verification period expired - the volume of water determined by calculation according to the average or standard for the number of prescribed .. The procedure for calculating the volume of DHW supply is exactly the same as for To calculate the cost of this service, cold water tariff is applied, since in this case it is cold water that is purchased from the supplier.

The second component

DHW heating- this is the amount of thermal energy that was spent on heating the volume of cold water provided to the apartment to a hot temperature. This amount is determined based on the readings of the general house heat energy meter.

In general, the amount of payment for hot water supply is calculated according to the following formula:

P i gv \u003d Vi gv × T xv+ (V v cr × Vi gv/ ∑ Vi gv × T v kr)

Vi Guards- the volume of hot water consumed during the billing period (month) in an apartment or non-residential premises

T xv- cold water tariff

V v cr- the amount of thermal energy used for the billing period for heating cold water in the independent production of hot water by the management company

∑ Vi gv- the total volume of hot water consumed during the billing period in all rooms of the house

T v cr- tariff for thermal energy

Calculation example:

Suppose the consumption of hot water in an apartment for a month was 7 m 3. Hot water consumption in the whole house - 465 m 3. The amount of thermal energy spent on heating DHW according to a common house metering device - 33.5 Gcal

7 m 3 * 33.3 rubles. + (33.5 Gcal * 7 m 3 / 465 m 3 * 1331.1 rubles) \u003d 233.1 + 671.3 \u003d 904.4 rubles,

Of which:

RUB 233.1 - payment for actual water consumption (DHW line in the receipt)

671.3 - payment for thermal energy spent on heating water to the required temperature (DHW heating line in the receipt)

In this example, 0.072 gigacalories of thermal energy were spent to heat one cube of hot water.

AT the value showing how many gigacalories it took to heat 1 cubic meter of water in the billing period is called DHW heating factor

The heating coefficient varies from month to month and largely depends on the following parameters:

Cold water supply temperature. At different times of the year, the temperature of cold water ranges from +2 to +20 degrees. Accordingly, in order to heat the water to the required temperature, you will have to spend a different amount of thermal energy.

The total volume of water consumed per month in all areas of the house. This value is largely influenced by the number of apartments that have passed their testimony in the current month, recalculations and, in general, the discipline of residents taking their testimony.

The cost of thermal energy for the circulation of hot water. The circulation of water in the pipes occurs continuously, including during the hours of minimum drawdown. That is, for example, at night, hot water is practically not used by residents, but thermal energy is still spent on heating water to maintain the required temperature of hot water in heated towel rails and at the inputs to apartments. This indicator is especially high in new, sparsely populated houses and stabilizes with an increase in the number of inhabitants.

Average values of DHW heating coefficients for each block are given in the section "Tariffs and calculated coefficients"

With the advent of cold weather, many Russians are concerned about the question of how to pay for utilities. For example, to how to calculate hot water and how often you should pay for these services. To answer all these questions, you first need to clarify whether a water meter is installed in this dwelling. If the counter is installed, then the calculation is made according to a certain scheme.

The first thing to do is to look at the receipt for utility services, which came last month. In this document, you should find a column that indicates the amount of water consumed over the past month, we need figures with indicators at the end of the last reporting period.

The first thing to do is to look at the receipt for utility services, which came last month

After these indications are written out, they should be entered in a new document. In this case, we are talking about a receipt for payment of utility bills for the next reporting period. As you can see, the answers to the questions, how to calculate the cost of hot water by the meter, how to determine its consumption, are quite simple. It is necessary to timely and correctly take all the readings of the water meter.

By the way, many management companies themselves enter the above information into the payment document. In this case, you do not have to look for data in old receipts. You also need to remember that in situations where the water meter has just been installed and these are the first readings, the previous ones will be zero.

The initial readings of some modern counters may not contain zeros, but some other numbers.

I would also like to clarify that the initial readings of some modern meters may not contain zeros, but some other numbers. In this case, in the receipt in the column where you need to indicate the previous readings, you need to leave these numbers.

The process of searching for previous meter readings is very important if you need to figure out how to calculate hot water from a meter. Without these data, it will not be possible to correctly calculate how many cubic meters of water were used in this reporting period.

So, before you start studying the question of how to calculate the cost of hot water, you should learn how to take readings from a water meter.

Designations on the counter

Almost all modern counters have a scale with a minimum of 8 digits. The first 5 of which are black, but the second 3 are red.

Important

It is important to understand that only the first 3 digits are displayed in the receipt, which are black. Because this is the data of cubic meters, and it is on them that the cost of water is calculated. But the data that is colored in red is liters. They do not need to be listed on invoices. Although these data make it possible to estimate how many liters of water a particular family consumes for a certain reporting period. Thus, you can understand whether it is worth saving on this benefit or whether the expense is within the normal range. And of course, you can determine how much water is spent on taking bath procedures, and how much on washing dishes, and so on.

It is important to understand that only the first 3 digits are displayed in the receipt, which are black

In order to correctly understand how to calculate the tariff for hot water, you should know on which day of the month the readings of this device are taken. Here, it must be remembered that water meter data must be taken at the end of each reporting period, after which they must be transferred to the appropriate authority. This can be done over a phone call or over the Internet.

On a note! It should be remembered that the figures are always indicated at the beginning of the reporting period (that is, those that were removed last month) and at the end (these are those that are removed now).

This regulation is spelled out in the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 05/06/2011, its number 354.

How to correctly calculate the service?

It is no secret that the legislation of our country is constantly changing, in connection with which citizens begin to worry about the question of how to calculate hot water or any other utility costs.

If we talk specifically about water, then we should take into account the fact that the payment consists of certain components:

indicators of the water meter, which is located in the room and controls the flow of cold water;
indicators of the meter, which shows the consumption of hot water in this apartment;
indicators of the device, which calculates the consumption of cold water for all tenants;
data of the meter that controls the consumption by the residents of the house, it is installed in the basement of the house;
the share of a particular apartment in the total expenditure;
share, which corresponds to a particular apartment in this house.

The penultimate indicator is the most incomprehensible, although in fact everything is quite accessible. It is taken into account when determining the amount of the resource that was spent on everyone. It is also called "common house needs." This, by the way, also applies to the last indicator, it is calculated when general house needs are calculated.

Calculation of hot water consumption

As for the first two indicators, they are quite understandable. They depend on the residents themselves, because a person himself can choose for himself whether to save the consumption of a particular resource or not. But in other cases, it all depends on how often wet cleaning is done in the entrance of the house, on the number of riser leaks, and so on.

The worst thing about this settlement system is that almost all of the common house needs are fictitious. Indeed, in every house there are tenants who incorrectly indicate their individual indicators, or, for example, one person is registered in their apartment, but five live. Then the general house needs should have been calculated based on the fact that 3 people live in apartment No. 5, and not 1. In this case, everyone else would have to pay a little less. As you can see, the question of how to calculate hot water still needs careful study.

That is why our officials are still trying to figure out how to calculate the payment for hot water and what mechanism would be the most successful.

Does everyone have the same rates?

To save money, you should always screw on the tap, if at the moment it is not necessary to use water

To do this, just go to the site of the management company or just call there. Also, such information is contained on the receipt, which comes to each tenant.

After these data are found, the cost of spent cubic meters of the resource should be calculated. Further, it is quite simple to calculate the payment for hot water, this is done in the same way as in the case of all other resources. You should take the number of cubic meters spent and multiply by a specific tariff.

It should be noted that today there are many ways to save hot water consumption, thereby reducing your costs of paying for it. To do this, you can use special nozzles on the faucet, they will help not to spray water so much and control the power of pressure. You should also open the faucet valve not at full strength, so the jet will go under less pressure, but the water will not scatter in all directions. And of course, you should always screw on the tap, if at the moment it is not necessary to use water. For example, when a person brushes his teeth or washes his hair (while the head is being soaped or the toothbrush is being smeared, the water tap can be closed).

All these tips will help reduce the cost of paying for hot or cold water, thereby helping to correctly calculate the consumption of hot water.

The difference between hot and cold water calculations

Of course, in this formula, as in the one that takes into account the consumption of hot water, there are many flaws. Due to the fact that general house indicators are taken into account, it is difficult to control where the difference between the individual indicators of all residents and the data that was taken from the water meter installed on the house went. Perhaps everything really is, and all this water went to clean the entrance. But this is hardly believable. Of course, there are residents who deceive the state and give incorrect data, but there are also errors in the operation of the pipeline system itself (sewer pipes in most houses are old and can leak, so the water goes nowhere).

Hot water invoice

For a long time our government has been thinking about how to correctly calculate hot and cold water and how to improve the existing mechanism.

For example, in 2013, our authorities came to the conclusion that it is necessary to establish standard norms for general house needs and take these data into account when calculating the cost of one cubic meter of water. This helped to somewhat restrain the zeal of our management companies and help the citizens of the country. You can find out these figures from the management company. But this applies only to those cases where the tenants have entered into an agreement with the management company. If we are talking about Vodokanal, then each settlement will have its own separate fixed minimum payment. And, let's say, an overpayment in this reporting period can cover expenses in the next one.

As you can see, there is a whole scheme that makes it clear how to calculate hot water heating or how to calculate how much to pay for cold water consumption.

Normative consumption of thermal energy for heating 1 cu. m of water * Tariff for thermal energy (supplied by MUP "CHKTS" or LLC "Mechel-Energo") = cost of service for heating 1 cubic meter. m

January - June 0.0467 Gcal/cub. m * 747.48 rubles / Gcal = 34.9073 rubles / cu. m
July - August 0.0467 Gcal / cub. m * 792.47 rubles / Gcal = 37.0083 rubles / cubic meter m
September – December 0.0467 Gcal/cub. m * 851.03 rubles / Gcal = 39.7431 rubles / cubic meter m

When paying for utilities, consumers see various abbreviations on the receipts. It is important to know what is behind these letters and where the money goes. DHW is a hot water service. But what it includes and what it consists of, let's take a closer look.

Regulatory framework and definitions

Hot water, centrally supplied to consumers, in accordance with the provisions of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 354 of 05/06/2011, is one of the communal resources. A utility service is the provision of a resource to a consumer by a service provider (supplier).

That is, in the case of hot water supply, a utility service is the supply of hot water of the required parameters to apartments in apartment buildings, dorm rooms, enterprises and public buildings (hospitals, laundries, kindergartens, etc.).

Services for the supply of hot water to residents are provided by the heating network, which is also responsible for the implementation of centralized heating of residential and public buildings.

Service features

The preparation of hot water for the needs of hot water supply occurs at centralized heating boilers, in the same place where the heat carrier of the heating system is heated.

Boilers can be connected to a looped DHW system or be dead-end - designed for a group of houses or one house (for example, rooftop boilers). The closer the consumer is to the source of hot water (boiler room), the better the service will be, the higher the water temperature. However, connection to looped networks is preferable in terms of reliability and uninterrupted hot water supply.

The service includes:

Boiler service. Unlike heating, hot water supply is provided all year round, while boiler houses switch to summer (minimum) operation.
Track maintenance.
Carrying out planned maintenance work on networks.

The water heated in the boiler room for an open (non-closed) DHW system enters the consumers' apartments through the supply water pipes, being distributed through the domestic DHW networks.

It should be remembered that hot water cannot be used for cooking due to the presence of additives in it - special additives that reduce the level of scale formation on the inner walls of pipelines.

The temperature of hot water at consumers is regulated by sanitary and legal norms and is + 50 ... + 65 ° С. In fact, it often does not exceed +40 °C.

This is due to heat losses during the supply of coolant along the routes (poor-quality pipe insulation, gusts) or due to low temperature at the outlet of the boiler room. Boiler room operators adjust the output parameters based on the outdoor temperature.

The task of the service provider is to provide the apartments with a communal resource of proper quality. Sometimes the heating network justifies the poor quality of the service by the deplorable state of the networks - the routes built in the last century that require major repairs will not withstand the temperature difference in winter, if the parameters of the coolant at the outlet of the boiler house are maintained at the standard level.

It turns out a vicious circle - many residents often do not pay for hot water due to its low temperature, or refuse this service altogether, switching to electric water heaters. And the enterprises of the heating network cannot carry out repair work, because. the debt of the population to pay does not give them an inflow of funds.

Outcome

Whether or not to pay for the DHW service, if it turns out to be of insufficient quality, is a purely personal matter. It is important to understand that by deciding to go down the path of non-payment, you do not just need to produce debts. It is necessary to collect the evidence base according to the following scheme: make commission measurements of water temperature, send the results to the service provider. Be sure to get an official response explaining the reasons for the low quality of the service. Having collected a package of evidence, you can go to court to defend your rights.

Decree of the Committee for Tariffs and Prices of the Moscow Region dated 13.12.2014 No. 149-R “On setting tariffs for hot water for 2015” approved a two-component tariff for hot water on the basis of Decree of the Russian Federation dated May 13, 2013 No. 406 “On state regulation of tariffs in in the field of water supply and sanitation. The procedure for calculating and paying utility bills is defined in the Rules for the Provision of Utility Services, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 354. Accordingly, the procedure for accruing payment for hot water has been changed. Now the fee for 1 cubic meter of hot water consists of two components:

The first- fee for 1 cubic meter of cold water.

Second- payment for thermal energy, which was spent on heating 1 cubic meter of cold water.

The component for cold water is the volume of cold water (CWS) for the needs of hot water supply. In the presence of individual metering devices (meters), this component is determined - according to the readings of the hot water metering device (DHW), in the absence of an individual metering device - according to the standard, i.e. 3.5 cubic meters per 1 person. per month.

From January 01, 2015, residents of apartment buildings in the city of Lyubertsy, which are equipped with common house metering devices, are charged for hot water at a two-component tariff: a cold water component for DHW and a thermal energy component for DHW.

Payment for hot water for residents of the house should also be made at a two-component tariff. The house is equipped with common house DHW meters. Payment for hot water from 07/01/2015 should be charged at the current two-component tariff: the cold water component for hot water supply (at the rate of 33.28 rubles / m3) and the thermal energy component (TE) for hot water supply at the rate of 2141.46 rubles ./Gcal.

In receipts for payment for housing and communal services from July 01, 2015, “Hot water supply” is indicated in two lines:

Cold water for hot water - the volume of cold water (HWS) for the needs of hot water supply;

TE for DHW - thermal energy spent on heating 1 cubic meter of cold water.

The indications of the common house metering device - the amount of hot water for the current month and the amount of thermal energy consumed in the current month for circulation and heating of the specified amount of water are given on the back of the receipt, for example, the following:

1089.079 cu. m. - FV for hot water supply (physical water for hot water supply);

110.732 Gcal. - TE for GVS (thermal energy for hot water supply).

The actual amount of heat energy spent on heating 1 cubic meter of cold water for a house is determined based on the total amount of heat energy to the total amount of hot water for the current month, which is:

= FC for DHW / FI for DHW = 110.732 Gcal. / 1089.079 cu. m. = 0.1017 Gcal / m3

then, the actual cost of thermal energy spent on heating 1 cubic meter of water in the current month will be:

0.1017 Gcal/cu.m x RUB 2141.46 for 1 Gcal. = 217.79 rubles.

Please note that the amount of heat energy spent on heating 1 cubic meter of cold water in each billing month may differ, because is a calculated value and depends on the amount (volume) of hot water consumed by the house in the current month and the amount of thermal energy spent on circulation and heating of this volume. Monthly, these readings are taken from the general house heat energy meter and transferred to the heat supply organization and are simultaneously recorded on the back of the receipt for each current month.

In accordance with Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 13, 2013 No. 406 “On state regulation of tariffs in the field of water supply and sanitation”, with a centralized hot water supply system in a closed system, a two-component tariff for hot water is set, consisting of “ cold water component "(rub. / m 3) and" component for thermal energy ” (RUB/Gcal). A resource supplying organization supplying hot water makes settlements with a utility service provider (management company, HOA) for 2 resources: cold water - at the tariff for the “cold water component”; thermal energy - at the tariff on the "thermal energy component". The value of the component for cold water is calculated by the tariff regulator based on the tariff for cold water. The value of the component for thermal energy is determined by the tariff regulator in accordance with the guidelines based on the following components: for the maintenance of centralized hot water supply systems in the area from the central heating points (inclusive), where hot water is prepared, to the point on the border of the operational responsibility of the subscriber and the regulated organization, if such costs are not taken into account in the tariff for thermal energy; the cost of heat energy losses in pipelines in the section from facilities where hot water is prepared, including from central heating points, including the maintenance of central heating points, to a point on the border of the operational responsibility of the subscriber and the regulated organization, if such losses are not taken into account when setting tariffs for thermal energy; costs associated with the transportation of hot water. Utility service providers in accordance with the "Rules for the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings", approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 6, 2011 No. 354 (hereinafter referred to as the Rules), calculate the amount of payment for the utility service for hot water supply for the volume of hot water consumed in cubic meters. In accordance with the Rules, the amount of payment (P i) for the utility service for hot water supply, in a room equipped with an individual device study that hot water is determined by the formula: P i \u003d V i n * T to p (1), where: V i n is the volume (quantity) of the communal resource consumed during the billing period in the i-th residential or non-residential premises, determined by the readings of an individual device accounting;T to p - the tariff for the utility resource. Since the tariff for the utility resource "hot water" is set in the form of two components, the utility service provider with hot water consumers calculates for the components: cold water and thermal energy for the needs of hot water supply. The amount of thermal energy (Gcal / m 3) for the needs of hot water supply per 1 m 3, as a rule, the utility service provider is determined on the basis of common house (collective) readings of hot water metering devices and thermal energy in hot water. It should be noted that the utility service provider makes calculations with the resource supplying organization based on the readings of the same common house (collective) meters for hot water and thermal energy in hot water. The amount of thermal energy consumed in hot water in the i-room (Gcal) is determined by multiplying the amount hot water according to an individual meter (m 3) by the specific consumption of thermal energy in hot water (Gcal / m 3). The volume of hot water determined by an individual meter (m 3) is multiplied by the tariff "cold water component" (rub ./m 3) - this is the payment for cold water as part of hot water. water. In accordance with the information letter of the FTS of Russia dated November 18, 2014 No. СЗ-12713/5 “On the regulation of tariffs for hot water in a closed hot water supply system for 2015”, states that the executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in the field of state regulation of prices (tariffs) entitled to decide on the establishment of tariffs for hot water in a closed hot water supply system per 1 cu. m. At the same time, the calculation of the tariff for hot water (T hot water) per 1 m 3 is carried out according to the formula: T hot water \u003d T cold water * (1 + K pv) + US central heating + T t / e * Q t / e (2), where : T hvs - tariff for cold energy (rubles / cubic meters); T t / e - tariff for thermal energy (rubles / Gcal); K pv - coefficient taking into account water losses in closed heat supply systems from central heating points to the point connections; US tst - specific costs for the maintenance of hot water supply systems from central heating points to the boundaries of the balance sheet ownership of consumers (excluding losses) if such costs are not included in the tariffs for thermal energy (capacity), per 1 cubic meter. m; Q t / e - the amount of heat required for the preparation of one cubic meter of hot water (Gcal / m3). At the same time, the amount of heat for the preparation of one cubic meter of hot water (Q t / e) is determined by calculation, taking into account heat capacity, pressure, temperature, water density, heat energy losses in risers and heated towel rails. Thus, the charge on the receipt for hot water depends on the form in which the regulatory body sets the tariff for hot water: for two components (cold water and heat energy ) or per cubic meter. In the question charges for 2 components (cold water and heat energy) are given, but the municipality and tariffs for the components are not indicated. If we assume that the consumption of hot water was 10 m 3, then the tariff for the “cold water component” is 331 rubles. / 10 m 3 \u003d 33.10 rubles / m 3. If we assume that the tariff for the “thermal energy” component is 1800 rubles / Gcal, the amount of consumed thermal energy is: 1100 rubles. / 1800 rubles / Gcal \u003d 0.611 Gcal, respectively, for heating 1 m 3 of hot water, the consumption of thermal energy was 0.611 Gcal / 10 m 3 \u003d 0.0611 Gcal / m 3.
