Which includes maintenance of gas equipment. Vdgo - what is it? abbreviation deciphering. Vdgo: specialized service organization

Let's try to figure out what is included in the list of in-house gas equipment (VDGO)?

The gas system of our country is a huge web of gas pipelines, compressor and distribution stations and other installations. Each gasified house has its own gas pipeline. As soon as he approaches the house or "enters" the entrance, the concept of VDGO appears. In apartment buildings, gas equipment "inside the house" is divided into two parts:

  • common property (including risers in the house, taps located in the entrance and the first ones in the apartment, with which we regulate the gas supply to the stove or other heating element);
  • private or individual - this is intra-apartment gas equipment (directly a stove, a column, a water heater or a heating boiler, as well as a connection to all these devices from the first tap in the apartment).

In accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, the responsibility for the safety of all in-house gas equipment lies on the shoulders of consumers.

Do I need to sign a maintenance contract?

Do I need to service the domestic gas equipment? To be honest, today this is not even discussed, because in our country every year people die in household gas explosions in residential buildings.

Until the 90s of the last century, in-house gas pipelines and equipment were on the balance sheet of gas distribution organizations. Then the apartments for the purpose of preventive maintenance were regularly visited by mechanics of Gorgaz. These works were included in the tariff, which included payment not only for the gas itself, but also for the maintenance of gas equipment and networks.

In the 1990s, it was decided at the federal level that there was no particular need for this.

Since 2003, the supervision of the maintenance of in-house gas equipment (VDGO) has gone out of control of Rostekhnadzor and has become “free floating”, and the maintenance and repair of VDGO was not subject to licensing.

Since 2004, the Gosstroy of the Russian Federation approved the "Rules and norms for the technical operation of the housing stock", according to which the costs of maintaining the VDGO were excluded from the gas tariff and transferred to the category of services provided under the contract.

With the change in legislation, many companies appeared on the market that do not have special equipment and appropriate craftsmen who could install and subsequently maintain gas equipment with high quality.

Over the years, the country has received everywhere deteriorating in-house gas equipment and more frequent gas explosions in everyday life.

In order to reverse the situation, restore order and protect its citizens, the Government of the Russian Federation adopted Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 549 dated July 21, 2008, which approved the “Rules for the supply of gas to meet the domestic needs of citizens”, and Order of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation No. 239 dated 06/26/2009 on the "Procedure for the maintenance of repair of in-house gas equipment."

These regulatory documents placed responsibility for the condition of gas-using equipment on consumers and obliged them to conclude contracts for the maintenance of VDGO and emergency dispatch support with a specialized organization in a timely manner.

Which organizations are engaged in the maintenance of gas equipment?

The maintenance of any gas equipment should be carried out by specialized gas distribution organizations that have qualified specialists on staff who are able to timely eliminate any problems in gas equipment using modern machinery and equipment, as well as an emergency dispatch service. This is a guarantee of the safe use of natural gas in everyday life.

In the Komi Republic, such a specialized gas distribution organization that meets the requirements of the law and has the right to carry out maintenance work on the VDGO is OAO Gazprom Gas Distribution Syktyvkar with branches in Syktyvkar, Emva, Ukhta, Pechora.

JSC "Gazprom gas distribution Syktyvkar", the company's branches carry out contractual work on the provision of maintenance services for the VDGO, have emergency dispatch services and are allowed to carry out this type of activity in the prescribed manner.

Who concludes a contract for the maintenance of gas equipment for general use?

The contract must be concluded by the owner of this gas equipment or, on his behalf, by a third party. Depending on the method of managing an apartment building, the contract for the maintenance of the VDGO is concluded:

a) a management company or HOA;

b) in case of direct management of the house, on the basis of the decision of the owners, the contract is concluded by a person authorized by the meeting.

In dormitories and other residential buildings, the premises in which are used by residents under a contract of employment, contracts for maintenance of the VDGO must be concluded by the owner (balance holder) of the house.

Who concludes a contract for the maintenance of individual gas equipment?

Maintenance of private property, which is located directly in the apartment, is entrusted to the residents.

Maintenance of VDGO. Questions and answers

A contract for the maintenance of gas equipment installed in your apartment is necessary to check its condition. A gas stove, water heater, boilers are considered fire and explosion household appliances, so regular checks of their technical condition are necessary. The owner of the apartment should take care of the conclusion of such an agreement on his own by contacting a specialized company directly. These are necessary in order to ensure the safety of yourself, your family and neighbors in the porch, confirming the serviceability of your gas equipment.

How to monitor the gas equipment located in the apartment?

Each consumer needs to remember that gas is not only warmth and comfort in our homes, but also a serious responsibility for their lives, the lives of their families and housemates. That is why Gazprom Mezhregiongaz Ukhta LLC, Gazprom Gas Distribution Syktyvkar OJSC recommend that consumers constantly monitor the condition of gas equipment installed in the apartment. It is very simple to do this - you need to contact your management company or directly to the gas workers to conclude a contract for the maintenance of equipment.

If the consumer evades the conclusion of the contract, what measures of influence can be applied to him?

On the basis of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 549 dated July 21, 2008. the gas supplier has the right to unilaterally suspend the supply of gas if the subscriber does not have an agreement with a specialized organization on the maintenance of the VDGO and emergency dispatch support.

How often is VDGO maintenance carried out

Maintenance of external and internal gas pipelines of the gas consumption network must be carried out at least once every three years.

Maintenance of household gas-using equipment must be carried out within the time limits set by the manufacturer, but at least once every three years. After the expiration of the service life of household gas-using equipment established by the manufacturer, its maintenance is carried out on the basis of the results of a technical inventory, but at least once a year. (clauses 11,12 of the Procedure for the maintenance and repair of the VDGO).

Works performed under the VDGO maintenance contract

Maintenance of external gas pipelines:

  • bypass and inspection of the route of the external gas pipeline;
  • maintenance of disconnecting devices on the external gas pipeline;
  • checking the state of painting and fastening of the gas pipeline, the presence and integrity of cases in places where gas pipelines are laid through the external and internal structures of buildings;
  • checking the tightness of gas pipelines and fittings by instrumentation or soap emulsion;

Maintenance of internal gas pipelines and gas-using equipment:

  • checking the performance and lubrication of valves (gate valves) installed on gas pipelines, repacking stuffing box seals (if necessary);
  • checking the presence of draft in the smoke and ventilation ducts, the condition of the connecting pipes of gas-using equipment with a smoke duct, the presence of an inflow of air for combustion.

Instructing the subscriber on the Rules for the safety of using gas in everyday life.

In case of detection of gas leaks within a year from the date of conclusion of the contract, their elimination is free of charge. The remaining works are performed in accordance with the Subscriber's request and are classified as repair works.

In the event of equipment malfunctions that require replacement or repair of equipment elements, the cost of repairs and spare parts is paid by the Subscriber.

Good afternoon!
Every month, the payment for the Gazprom DV VKGO is charged in the gas receipt. The frequency of maintenance of VKGO for plates whose service life has not expired is once every three years. Why do I pay for VKGO every month? And where to turn to provide this service if no one comes?

Maintenance of a household gas meter includes:
– external inspection of the meter and the presence of a seal on the connection of the gas meter,
- checking the connection of the meter for tightness,
- checking the performance and the date of its last verification,
- taking control readings,
— briefing on the safe use of gas in everyday life.
The frequency of maintenance of the PU is once a year. Payment of accruals for the service is made at a time upon the fact of the work performed against the invoice - receipt for gas supply services.

What is TO VKGO in the receipt and do I have to pay for it

No one came to my house with such a procedure, and the amount on the receipt for payment is worth it! What does it mean? They take money and don't provide services. To whom to complain and where to apply?

Thanks a lot!

Lawyer's response:

Hello!

According to paragraph 8 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 410 of May 14, 2013 “On measures to ensure safety when using and maintaining in-house and in-house gas equipment”, technical diagnostics work in relation to in-house gas equipment (VKTO) is carried out by owners (users) premises in which such equipment is located.

In-house gas equipment includes - gas pipelines of an apartment building, laid from a shut-off valve (switch-off device) located on branches (drops) to in-house gas equipment, to household gas-using equipment located indoors, household gas-using equipment and technical devices on gas pipelines, including including control and safety fittings, systems for monitoring the gas content of premises, an individual or common (apartment) metering device (clause 2 of RF PP No. 410)

Accordingly, you, as the owner, should initiate the conclusion of a contract for the provision of maintenance of VKGO with a specialized organization.

The presence of an agreement on the maintenance of VKGO is a prerequisite for the implementation of gas supply to consumers (Articles 128, 131 of the Rules for the provision of utilities by owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 354 dated 05/06/2011. "

According to paragraphs. "b" clause 80 of RF PP No. 410, the contractor has the right to suspend the gas supply with prior written notice to the customer in the absence of an agreement on the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment.

Payment for a scheduled technical inspection of the VKGO can be made both in the form of a subscription fee, and upon the fact of the work performed, depending on the terms of the concluded contract. If the payment for the technical inspection is made upon the fact of the work performed, and the work is not actually performed, then you need to contact the contractor under the VKGO maintenance agreement with a claim.

It should be noted that payment for equipment repair services is not included in the cost of technical inspection of VKGO and is made separately.

The question was answered by the lawyer of SRO NP "ZhKH-Group" Elena Klimova

Cost and payment procedure

In accordance with the "Guidelines for the regulation of retail prices for gas sold to the population", approved by Order of the Federal Tariff Service of the Russian Federation dated November 23, 2004. 194-e / 12 and the Information Letter of the Federal Tariff Service No. SN-3765/9 dated June 23, 2005, the costs of gas distribution organizations for the maintenance of VDGO since 2006. are no longer taken into account when approving retail prices for natural gas sold to the population. Thus, retail prices for natural gas sold to the population currently do not include the cost of technical and repair-request maintenance of the VDGO, therefore the cost of services (works) for the maintenance of the VDGO does not depend on the volume of natural gas consumed.

The methodology for forming the cost of services for the technical operation of the VDGO is the same for all specialized organizations providing these services on the territory of the Russian Federation. The methodology is based on the "Approximate price list for gas facilities services for the maintenance and repair of gas distribution systems", developed by the head research and design institute of the gas industry - JSC "GiproNIIgaz", put into effect by the Order of JSC "Rosgazifikatsiya" dated 20.06.2001. 35.

The cost of services under the contract is determined based on the list and quantity of gas equipment in the house.

Payment for the work performed (services rendered) for maintenance of the VDGO and (or) VKGO is carried out by the customer, including in the form of a subscription fee, within the time period stipulated by the agreement on the maintenance and repair of the VDGO and (or) VKGO, and if such a period is not established by the specified agreement, not later than the 10th day of the month following the month in which the work was performed (services were rendered).

Why do residents of apartment buildings who have chosen the method of managing a managing organization pay for VDGO maintenance based on the number of meters of the total area of ​​\u200b\u200bits living quarters?

In accordance with Article 154 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, the structure of payment for housing for a tenant or for the owner of premises in an apartment building includes, among other things, payment for services and work on the maintenance and current repair of common property in an apartment building. VDGO refers to the common property of an apartment building, owned by all owners of the premises on the basis of common shared ownership and intended for use by all residents.

The share of each resident cannot be allocated in kind and is proportional to the size of the total area of ​​​​the premises occupied by the owner, but by the calculation unit of the housing sector, established on the basis of the “Methodological recommendations for the financial justification of tariffs for the maintenance and repair of the housing stock” (approved by order of the Gosstroy of Russia on 28.12. 2000 303) is one square meter of the total housing area.

These recommendations were developed by the State Unitary Enterprise "Center for Regulation and Information Systems in Housing and Communal Services" (CNIS), which performs the functions of the Federal Center for Price and Tariff Policy in Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation, and approved by the Scientific and Technical Council of the Gosstroy of Russia (protocol 01 -NS-31/4 dated October 27, 2000).

In addition, in accordance with Art. 156 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, the payment for the maintenance and repair of residential premises is set in an amount that ensures the maintenance of common property in an apartment building in accordance with the requirements of the law.

According to Art. 158 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, the owner of premises in an apartment building is obliged to bear the costs of maintaining the premises belonging to him, as well as to participate in the costs of maintaining common property in an apartment building in proportion to his share in the common ownership of this property by paying a fee for the maintenance and repair of residential premises. From which it follows that payment for residential premises is made based on the total area occupied (in separate rooms in hostels, based on the area of ​​these rooms) of the residential premises.

The amount of payment for the use of residential premises (rental fees), payments for the maintenance and repair of residential premises for tenants of residential premises under social rental agreements and contracts for the rental of residential premises of the state or municipal housing stock, as well as for owners of residential premises who have not made a decision on choosing the method of managing an apartment building, are established by local governments.

Thus, the norms of the current legislation regulate the procedure for charging fees for the maintenance of the VDGO, namely, from one square meter of the total area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe dwelling. These norms are mandatory and do not contain another option for determining the amount of payment for housing.

Why enter into a comprehensive contract?

In any case, the contractor under the contract for maintenance of the VDGO is forced to go to the apartments to service the common property, because the first shut-off and control valves on the outlets of the intra-apartment wiring from the risers are located in front of the appliances directly in the apartments.

In addition, the owners (tenants) of apartments in a residential building, in pursuance of the requirements of the Rules for the supply of gas to meet the domestic needs of citizens, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of July 21, 2008 No. 549, it will be necessary to conclude individual contracts for the maintenance and emergency dispatching of the VDGO apartment.

The presence of an agreement for the maintenance of in-house gas equipment will not relieve the owner (tenant) of the premises in an apartment building from the obligation to pay for maintenance of the VDGO of the common property of the house as part of a receipt for paying for the services of the managing organization, which increases the financial burden on the subscriber.

For example, the owner of an apartment of 30.5 sq. m must pay the cost of maintenance services for the VDGO, which is part of the common property in an apartment building, in the amount of 30.5 sq. m × 0.96 kop.

The cost of maintenance of VDGO

29.28 rubles, as well as additionally, under a separate agreement, the cost of services for the technical and repair-application maintenance of in-house gas equipment.

The cost of services under a contract for the maintenance of gas equipment in an apartment equipped with a four-burner gas stove, instantaneous water heater and household gas meter is 62.90 rubles. per month and consists of the cost:

  • Maintenance of a gas stove of increased comfort (equipped with electric ignition, safety automatics) - 17.95 rubles,
  • Maintenance of a flowing automatic water heater - 26.60 rubles,
  • Maintenance of 2 gas valves in front of gas appliances - 11.60 rubles,
  • Maintenance of threaded connections of the gas pipeline to the gas flow meter - 4.20 rubles.
  • Repair and application maintenance of the apartment - 2.55 rubles.

The total monthly payment will be 29.28 + 62.90 = 92.18 rubles.

The calculation was made at prices valid from 01.07.2017.

It is reliably known from practice that it is impossible to conclude contracts 100%, while potentially the most dangerous apartments (asocial citizens) will remain without service, which can lead to emergencies that threaten the life and health of not only these citizens, but also their neighbors, since according to statistics, up to 90% of all accidents occur precisely on in-house gas equipment.

In addition, stopping the gas supply without getting into the apartment will be possible only by turning off the risers in the entrances, including those with apartments that have a contract. This will lead to mass blackouts, which will obviously create social tension. As a consequence, the goal of achieving accident-free operation will largely not be achieved.

For a long time, natural gas has been used as a fuel for heating the homes of Russians. The fact that gas is a fairly cheap and profitable thermal resource is known to everyone.

At the same time, many citizens forget that the use of "blue fuel" requires special attention from consumers. Improper operation of gas equipment can lead to serious problems.

Not only equipment or buildings suffer from accidents, sometimes the scale of emergency situations associated with the release of a powerful heat source out of human control leads to destruction and death.

That is why the safety of using gas in everyday life is one of the most important tasks not only for the users themselves, but also for the state as a whole.

Is it necessary to conclude an agreement for maintenance of VDGO according to the law

Recent statistics show that gas equipment failures in private and multi-apartment buildings have become noticeably more frequent. Although, as you know, it is better to avoid trouble than to deal with their consequences.

In order to prevent accidents associated with improper operation of gas equipment, the Government of the Russian Federation adopted a special law, according to which users of this type of fuel are required to regularly check gas equipment located in houses and apartments.

According to Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 410 dated May 14, 2013, citizens using natural gas to heat their houses and apartments and specialized services must agree on the conditions for using the resource and conclude appropriate agreements.

Thus, the owners of residential premises are responsible for their own safety when using "blue fuel".

That is, the life and health of citizens, in this case, depend on their consciousness. At the same time, they are still considering whether it is worth signing such an agreement with special gas services.

Of course, everyone has the right to make their choice. But in this case, the wrong decision will lead to the fact that the gas supply to a particular dwelling will be terminated. This decision of the gas services will be quite legal.

List of gas equipment to be inspected

Several types of equipment are used to provide gas to houses and apartments. Each of them must undergo a special check.

At the same time, it does not matter where exactly it is located - in a private house, apartment, or is the common property of the residents of an apartment building.

Since there is a division of equipment into general house and intra-apartment equipment, it should be clarified what exactly belongs to these groups:

  • risers to taps and metering devices located in apartments are considered common house;
  • appliances installed in the apartment are intra-apartment.

Until 2013, gas equipment available in houses and apartments was under the control of the management company of the house. It was the UK that ensured the smooth operation of the devices. Management was also involved in concluding contracts, and the apartment owners themselves had nothing to do with contracts with gas workers.

Any service involves a certain payment. In this case, it was brought in by the residents of the houses. The required amount was indicated in the payment documents.

Distinctions in the duties of the Criminal Code and homeowners appeared immediately after the adoption of the relevant Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 410.

From now on:

  • The following appliances become the private property of apartment owners: gas stoves and boilers, as well as water heaters. That is why the entire responsibility for the correct use and annual verification of these devices now rests with the homeowners;
  • the management company should deal only with common house appliances and only conclude contracts with gas services for them.

Which organizations service in-house gas equipment

No other organization except Gorgaz has the right to provide citizens with gas equipment maintenance services.

To communicate with consumers, the company has its own emergency dispatch service. Companies that have signed contracts with resource suppliers and are engaged in its distribution to citizens also control the condition of gas equipment inside houses and apartments.

Employees of the organization who ensure the uninterrupted and high-quality operation of gas appliances must have special education and regularly undergo certification, which meets the requirements of the law.

VDGO service contract

What is a contract for the maintenance of in-house gas equipment?

At its core, this is an agreement between the owner of the dwelling and the gas appliance service company. The contract is drawn up according to a certain standard, and also includes a list of services.

The following information is included in the document:

  • information about the owner of the property, address;
  • name of the service company, details, account number;
  • what gas appliances are installed in the room;
  • a list of services provided by the company in accordance with the agreement;
  • date of conclusion and duration of the contract;
  • cost of services, method of payment.

Note! The amount of payment under the contract depends on the type of gas equipment. Payment is made according to the price list established by the organization and is determined depending on the cost of each device..

How the parties' service agreement works

As soon as an agreement is concluded between the owner and the company, the appliances are checked in the residential premises and repairs are carried out (if necessary).

Types of services and works carried out after the signing of the contract:

  • checking for compliance of the installation of devices with accepted requirements;
  • tracking the impermeability of pipes and connections between parts of devices;
  • equipment quality control;
  • revision of the traction force of the ventilation outlets;
  • instructing residents using gas appliances.

Note! During the term of the agreement, all work to eliminate resource leakage, as well as to increase the tightness of pipes, is performed free of charge. In the event of any malfunctions, repairs and the cost of parts are paid by the owner of the property.

Terms of the contract and the frequency of inspections of gas appliances

The term of the contract cannot exceed 3 years.

According to this document, the service organization must carry out an inspection of the equipment once a year. As a result of the performed procedure, an appropriate act is issued.

Important! If the apartment smells of gas, this indicates a malfunction of some kind of gas appliance. In this situation, immediately call the specialists of the service company.

How much does VDGO service cost under a contract

Gas is sold to the population at certain prices. When calculating the retail price, the costs of gas distribution companies for the maintenance of gas equipment installed in the house were previously taken into account.

In connection with the Order of the Federal Tariff Service of the Russian Federation of November 23, 2004 No. 194-e / 12 “On Approval of the Guidelines for the Regulation of Retail Prices for Gas Sold to the Population” and on the basis of the Information Letter of the Federal Tariff Service No. CH-3765/9 of June 23. 2005, this practice of calculating gas prices was abolished.

Now the price of gas for residents does not include payment for the maintenance of appliances. It follows from this that the cost of maintenance work or services does not depend on the amount of fuel used.

The country has adopted a unified methodology for calculating the cost of VDGO operation services. It is based on the "Approximate price list for gas services for the maintenance and repair of gas distribution systems."

This document was developed by OAO GiproNIIgaz, which is the leading research and design institute for the gas industry. This development of scientists began to operate after the publication of the Order of OJSC dated June 20, 2001 No. 35.

The letter of the Federal Tariff Service of the Russian Federation (dated April 14, 2006, 09-153) states that this price list should be used as the main tool in calculating the cost of services for maintenance of the VDGO.

The size of the service fee for maintenance is affected by the type of gas equipment in a particular residential area, as well as the number of installed appliances.

The owner of the apartment who ordered them must pay for the services or work performed. The payment term is stipulated by the terms of the agreement.

When the term was not specified in the contract, the following term is taken into account - no later than the tenth day of the month following the month when the relevant work was performed.

Residents of apartment buildings, where they have their own management companies, pay for maintenance depending on the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe apartment. Why is this happening?

Each house has property that is common to all residents. The maintenance and repair of such equipment falls on the shoulders of the owners or tenants of housing (Article 154 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

It is known that in-house gas equipment is common house property on the basis of common shared ownership, and is also operated by all persons living in this house.

It is impossible to allocate in kind the share of one tenant in proportion to the size of the total area of ​​the apartment. According to the "Methodological recommendations for the financial justification of tariffs for the maintenance and repair of housing stock", approved by the order of the Gosstroy of Russia dated December 28, 2000 No. 303, the calculation unit of housing and communal services is 1 sq. m. of the total area of ​​housing.

In our country, the body that performs the functions of the Federal Center for Price and Tariff Policy in Housing and Public Utilities is the State Unitary Enterprise "Center for Regulation and Information Systems in Housing and Communal Services". It was this enterprise that developed the recommendations mentioned earlier.

In 2000, these rules were approved by the Scientific and Technical Council of the Gosstroy of the Russian Federation (minutes 01-NS-31/4 dated October 27, 2000). The Housing Code of the Russian Federation (Article 156) also addresses the issues of charging fees for the maintenance and repair of an apartment. It is calculated in such an amount that will ensure the maintenance of common house property.

Any owner of an apartment, in fact, like a tenant of housing, must participate in the maintenance of not only his housing, but also make a certain contribution to ensuring the normal functioning of common house property (Article 158 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). This amount depends on the share in the common ownership of the property.

Thus, payment for an apartment is carried out depending on the total area of ​​the apartment (dormitory room). Local self-government bodies may establish a fee for the use of residential premises.

This happens when tenants use the premises on the basis of a social tenancy agreement for state or municipal premises, as well as if the apartment owners have not decided on the way to manage the apartment building.

The procedure for charging fees for maintenance of in-house property takes place in accordance with the norms of the current legislation of the Russian Federation. It has already been said above that the size of the fee depends on the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room. These norms are categorical, that is, there are no other ways to calculate housing fees.

Watch the video. For what you do not have to pay for the maintenance of VDGO:

What is the need for a comprehensive agreement?

A person who is a contractor under a maintenance contract must visit the apartments of citizens. The fact is that the first shut-off and control valves on the outlets of the wiring going inside the living quarters are located in front of the gas appliances installed in the apartment.

The rules for the supply of gas to meet the domestic needs of citizens, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of July 21, 2008 No. 549, state that owners or tenants of apartments are required to sign an individual agreement on maintenance and emergency dispatch support of in-house gas equipment.

Note! If you have entered into an individual maintenance agreement, this does not relieve you of the need to pay the appropriate funds for the maintenance of in-house gas equipment.

This amount is written on the invoice. It is clear that this will only increase the cost of utilities. So, for example, if you own an apartment of 40 sq. m., you need to pay 38.4 rubles for maintenance of the VDGO (we multiply 40 sq. M. by 0.96 kopecks).

In addition, you also pay the amount specified in your contract for the maintenance of gas equipment installed in your apartment.

maintenance cost

When the gas equipment of the apartment includes a four-camphor gas stove, a water heater with running water, and a gas meter, the monthly payment for maintenance services will be 62.90 rubles.

Maintenance cost includes:

  • payment for maintenance of the modernized stove (has electric ignition and safety automation) is 17 rubles 95 kopecks;
  • Maintenance of a water heater with running water is 26 rubles 60 kopecks;
  • maintenance of gas valves (2 pieces) located in front of gas equipment is 11 rubles 60 kopecks;
  • for the maintenance of threaded connections of the gas pipeline with a gas meter, you will need to pay 4.20 rubles;
  • an application for repairs costs 2 rubles 55 kopecks.

Adding all the numbers, we get the amount equal to 92 rubles. 18 kop. This is the monthly payment.

Responsibility for the lack of a maintenance document

The gas supplied to the homes of our citizens is classified as a high-risk fuel. Therefore, in the apartments of persons who have not yet concluded an agreement, there are gas appliances that pose a specific threat to other residents of the house.

These devices have not been tested, and it is impossible to understand in what condition they are without an appropriate inspection. There is a danger in faulty gas appliances in both private and apartment buildings. But in the latter case, the lives of a large number of citizens are at risk.

Note! The gas supply to the houses will be stopped if the appliances do not pass the necessary checks.

Regular inspection is a guarantee that the gas entering the apartments is not a threat to people's lives. By not complying with the requirements of the law and not responding to the warnings of gas workers, an unscrupulous gas consumer will be left without heat.

To prevent this situation, provide access to gas appliances for specialists. Also, sign a service contract.

It is important to understand that the gas supplier only offers you to enter into such an agreement. Everything else depends on you, because it is you, as a consumer, who should be interested in servicing the equipment and are responsible for this procedure.

Sometimes contracts on behalf of homeowners are concluded by the Criminal Code. In this case, all responsibility lies with her. Residents pay directly for the use of fuel.

We consider it natural to have a gas stove in our apartment, not noticing and not considering by some miracle the possibility of using gas to cook food or heat our residential buildings. However, we do not always remember that gas is a source of increased danger.

We are reminded of this by explosions in residential buildings, including apartment buildings, throughout our country, which were caused, among other things, by improper handling of gas equipment or its malfunction as a result of not always proper maintenance. But for the most part, citizens, and not organizations serving MKD, were found guilty in emergency situations.

It is clear to all of us that in-house gas equipment needs specialized maintenance. But gas workers, being monopolists in most regions, very often simply twist the hands of managing organizations, imposing not very favorable terms of the contract for the maintenance of VDGO and additional, not always mandatory, types of work. Moreover, the prices for such services are constantly rising, and there is often simply no fair competition. And the monopolist tries to prevent competitors from entering this market, by all means surviving competing companies. I think that many employees of the housing and communal services industry have also heard about such competitive wars in their region.

The procedure for using gas in terms of ensuring the safe use and maintenance of in-house and in-house gas equipment when providing utility services for gas supply, including the procedure for concluding and executing an agreement on the maintenance and repair of VDGO, is established by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 14, 2013 No. 410 “On measures on ensuring safety during the use and maintenance of in-house and in-house gas equipment ”(hereinafter referred to as Rules 410).

With the light hand of our legislature, in the first edition of rules 410, only VDGO maintenance activities could be carried out gas distribution organizations that transport gas under an agreement with a gas supplier. Such provisions of the law, securing the exclusive rights of organizations that are already monopolists, could not but give rise to litigation until By the decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of December 10, 2013 No. AKPI13-826 points 2, 6, 7, 10, 24 - 30, 32, 34 - 36, 80 Rules No. 410 “On measures to ensure safety when using and maintaining in-house and in-house gas equipment”, in the part that gives the exclusive right to carry out maintenance, repair and replacement of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment only to a gas distribution organization that transports gas under an agreement with a gas supplier.

Maintenance work of the VDGO is one of the types of mandatory work on the maintenance of the common property of an apartment building (MKD).

According to clause 131 of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 05/06/2011 N 354 (as amended on 09/09/2017) "On the provision of utilities to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings" (hereinafter - Rules 354), gas supply to the consumer is carried out subject to organized by the contractor and carried out by a specialized organization of emergency dispatch support, proper maintenance and repair of in-house gas equipment and in-house gas equipment, as well as subject to technical diagnostics of in-house gas equipment and in-house gas equipment, which are carried out under the relevant agreements concluded in an apartment building in relation to in-house gas equipment in an apartment building - with a partnership or cooperative, a managing organization, and in case of direct management of an apartment building - with owners of premises in an apartment building.

In accordance with paragraph 21 of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated April 3, 2013 No. 290 “On the minimum list of services and works necessary to ensure the proper maintenance of common property (OI) in an apartment building, and the procedure for their provision and implementation” (hereinafter referred to as List 290 ) it has been established that the work performed for the proper maintenance of in-house gas equipment systems in MKD are:

    organization of checking the state of the system of in-house gas equipment and its individual elements;

    organization of maintenance and repair of gas pollution control systems in premises;

    upon detection of violations and malfunctions of in-house gas equipment, smoke removal and ventilation systems that can lead to gas accumulation in the premises, organization of work to eliminate them.

Thus, the conclusion of an agreement for the maintenance of the VDGO is mandatory for the managing organization as for the organization responsible for the maintenance of common property, in accordance with the provisions of Rules 354, 491 and the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, these works are considered to be provided for in the management agreement and must be carried out without fail by the managing organization. That is, the managing organization is obliged to provide for the specified maintenance work of the VDGO when developing proposals for approving the list of works for the maintenance of the OI MKD and fees for maintenance and current repairs at a general meeting of owners.

Resolution of the Thirteenth Arbitration Court of Appeal dated January 15, 2018 No. 13AP-33608/2017 : “The obligation of the Management Company, as a contractor of utility services, to conclude an agreement with a specialized organization for the maintenance of gas-using equipment in the interests of citizens and in order to create organizational and technical conditions for the gas supplier and the population for the safe gas supply of an apartment building is based on the provisions cited by the courtsparagraph 3, 4 , 13 , subparagraph "g" of paragraph 49 Rules for the provision of public services to citizens, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 23, 2006 No. 307,paragraph 2 of article 161 Housing Code of the Russian Federation,paragraph 5.5.6Rules and norms for the operation of the housing stock, approved by the Decree of the Gosstroy of the Russian Federation of September 27, 2003 No. 170,paragraph 4Order No. 239 andparagraph 30Rules No. 410".

The only question is what work and with what frequency should be performed by the service organization for servicing the VDGO, and the question of the price of such an agreement is also interesting. After all, not every leader is ready to defend his innocence in the courts, entering into disputes under the contract.

There is even a case when a demonstrative shutdown of gas was arranged in an apartment building serviced by one managing organization. It is clear that they did not find who did it. And no one will look, judging by the work of our law enforcement agencies. And it is almost impossible to prove the involvement of respected gas workers in this. But who needed to turn off the gas in a residential high-rise building in a prosperous area of ​​the city? It’s just that an ordinary person will not turn off the gas to the whole house, since, nevertheless, this is fraught with criminal liability if such actions cause damage to property or, God forbid, to the health or life of people. And how many of us know where the gas pipe that supplies gas to a residential apartment building is turned off?

But by a strange coincidence, just at that very time, this managing organization had a contractual dispute with the organization serving the VDGO, when concluding an agreement for the new year. And do you think the contract was signed on the terms of the managing organization or the servicing monopoly organization? The answer, I think, is obvious. The contract was signed and extra money was paid for services that were completely optional. After all, the managing organizations are the richest in our country, much richer than power engineers and gas workers, and they will easily pay for unnecessary work, otherwise they will be asked from them for "unknown persons" from nosy gas workers.

This is just the case when it is clear to everyone where the wind is blowing from, but it is easier to agree and pay more than 100 thousand rubles for optional and imposed services than to look for the guilty or wait for the gas to be turned off by "unknown persons" of the remaining houses of the managing organization, and then wait for checks on complaints from residents due to the lack of gas in the apartments.

Maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment is carried out on the basis of an agreement on the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment concluded by the customer and the contractor (paragraph 16 of Rules 410).

In accordance with paragraph 38 of Rule 410, the terms of the contract for the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment are determined in accordance with the Civil code Russian Federation and Rules 410.

By its legal nature, the concluded agreement for the provision of technical maintenance services is a contract for the provision of services for a fee, relations under which are regulated by the norms of Chapter 39 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).

In accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 779 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, under a contract for the provision of services for a fee, the contractor undertakes, on the instructions of the customer, to provide services (perform certain actions or carry out certain activities), and the customer undertakes to pay for these services.

The contract for the maintenance of the VDGO is a public contract, that is, the conclusion of the contract is mandatory for the party engaged in the maintenance of in-house gas equipment.

The contract is considered concluded by virtue of the provisions of paragraph 1 of Article 432 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, if an agreement is reached between the parties, in the form required in the relevant cases, on all essential terms of the contract.

Previously, prior to the amendment of paragraph 43 of Rule 410, it was envisaged to bypass the routes at least once a year, and instrumental inspection of the technical condition of gas pipelines - at least once every three years, to carry out maintenance of internal gas pipelines that are part of the in-house and in-house gas equipment - not less than once every 3 years.

By Government Decree No. 1091 dated 09.09.2017, this paragraph was amended, in accordance with which subparagraph “b” of paragraph 43 is set out as follows, on the basis of which the Contractor is now obliged to: carry out maintenance of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment at least 1 time per year, taking into account the minimum list of work performed (services rendered) for the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment, provided for in the annex to these Rules.

When concluding a contract, managing organizations need to check the scope of work included in the contract for its compliance with the minimum list of work under Rules 410, in order to avoid including additional work that is not provided for in the list.

Another point of contention when concluding a contract for the maintenance of VDGO is the price of the contract.

Paragraph 1 of Art. 709 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, what in the contract specifies the price of the work to be performed or how to define it. In the absence of such indications in the contract, the price is determined in accordance withparagraph 3 of Article 424 Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

Article 424 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, paragraph 1 provides: the performance of the contract is paid at the price established by the agreement of the parties. In cases provided for by law, prices (tariffs, rates, rates, etc.) are applied, established or regulated by authorized state bodies and (or) local governments. Paragraph 2 of that article says: price change after the conclusion of the contract is allowed in cases and under the conditions stipulated by the contract, by law or in the manner prescribed by law.

According to paragraph 40 of Rule 410, the price of the contract is determined on the basis of tariffs for the performance of work, calculated in accordance with guidelines on the rules for calculating the cost of maintenance and repair of in-house and in-house gas equipment, approved by the Federal Antimonopoly Service. By order of the Federal Tariff Service of Russia dated December 27, 2013 No. 269-e / 8 “On approval of the Guidelines on the rules for calculating the cost of maintenance and repair of in-house and in-house gas equipment”, these guidelines were approved (hereinafter referred to as Order 269).

Based on paragraph 2 of Order 269, it follows that the guidelines recommended when calculating the cost of maintenance and repair of intra-house and intra-apartment gas equipment. Thus, the specified regulatory document is not mandatory for use by individuals and legal entities when concluding contracts, since it is not a regulatory legal act that regulates relations for the establishment of a mandatory tariff for the specified maintenance services of the VDGO.

Litigation in this category of contracts is not particularly diverse. Most of them relate to the collection of debts under existing contracts for the maintenance of VDGO. When concluding a contract, disputes arise on points relating to the delimitation of the balance sheet and operational responsibility of gas networks, as well as points of the contract relating to the execution of acts of work performed.

Resolution of the Sixth Arbitration Court of Appeal dated November 23, 2016 No. 06AP-4867/201 in case no. A73-6939/2016: « It does not follow from the above provisions of Rule 491 that the in-house engineering gas supply system up to and including the stop valves (faucet) is included in the common property.

As a general rule, the outer boundary of the engineering networks that are part of the common property is the outer boundary of the wall of an apartment building; the boundary of operational responsibility is the junction of the collective (general house) metering device with the corresponding engineering network included in the apartment building (paragraph 8 of Rules No. 491).

A special rule has been established for gas supply networks: the external boundary of gas supply networks that are part of the common property is the junction of the first locking device with the external gas distribution network (clause 9 of Regulation No. 491).

Taking into account the above regulatory provisions, the locking device located on the gas pipeline laid along the facade of the building, and which is the boundary between the gas input pipeline and the gas consumption network, is not part of the in-house gas equipment in an apartment building.

Resolution of the Arbitration Court of the Far Eastern District of February 8, 2017 No. F03-6557 / 2016 (determination of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of May 26, 2017 No. 303-ES17-5751 refusal to transfer the cassation complaint to the Investigative Committee of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation): « According to mandatory requirementsparagraph 39Rules No. 410 in the contract for the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment indicates the address of the apartment building in which the in-house gas equipment is located, the maintenance and repair of which will be carried out under the contract for the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment, therefore, each apartment building, which is under the control of the plaintiff, should be an independent subject of the contract for maintenance. At the same time, the norms of the current legislation do not prohibit the conclusion of a single contract for the maintenance and repair of in-house gas equipment in relation to several apartment buildings.

By virtue ofparagraph 55of Rules No. 410, the performance of work (provision of services) under a contract for the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment is confirmed by an acceptance certificate for the work performed (services rendered).

Having established that the plaintiff's requirement to indicate in the act of delivery and acceptance of the work performed the cost of such work for each house does not contradict the provisions of the law, the courts reasonably satisfied the plaintiff's claims in this part.

Thus, from the above it is possible to draw the following conclusions:

    the conclusion of a contract for the maintenance of VDGO is mandatory for the managing organization as for an organization responsible for the maintenance of common property, in accordance with the provisions of rules 354, 491 and the Housing Code of the Russian Federation;

    the specified works are considered to be provided for in the management contract and must be carried out without fail by virtue of List 290 and Resolution of the Supreme Arbitration Court No. 6464/10;

    the current legislation of the Russian Federation does not provide for the mandatory establishment and regulation of tariffs for VDGO maintenance services;

    change of the contract price is possible only by agreement of the parties on the basis of an additional agreement. If there are disagreements under the contract, the dispute is subject to judicial review at the claim of either party.

Arguing in court with an organization serving the VDGO or somehow agreeing peacefully (if it is possible in your region), or accepting all the conditions of the gas workers, turning a blind eye to the inconsistency of their version of the contract with the law, each of the leaders of the managing organizations decides these issues himself due to various initial data.

But, I think, the probability of concluding an agreement on conditions that comply with the law will be higher in those regions where there will be fair competition, and in general there will be competitors to Gazprom's subsidiaries. Only in this case, managing organizations will have the choice to conclude an agreement on the most favorable terms with a loyal and organization that will value each counterparty. And it’s hardly worth waiting for a fair and fair game from a monopolist ...

Sincerely, Ilmira Nosik.

VDGO is an intra-house gas equipment, the maintenance of which is the key to the safety of domestic gas consumption.

Long way gas

Habitually turning on gas in the kitchen, consumers of blue fuel rarely think about the complicated path that gas goes from the field to the gas burner. For gas supply, gas pipelines of various diameters, pumping equipment, storage tanks, gas distribution stations, shut-off valves and control systems are used.

All this equipment forms external gas networks, is on the balance sheet of sales companies and is used to supply gas to a residential building or land plot.

Sales companies monitor only the serviceability and safety of gas pipelines owned by them. But they supply gas only until the gas pipeline is connected to the house.

Intra-house gas networks: what is it?

Gas equipment, including a gas pipeline network, metering devices, shut-off valves and gas consumption devices located within a residential building or land plot, is the property of the homeowner (if we are talking about a private house) or common property (if we are talking about an apartment building). It is this equipment that is called in-house gas equipment or VDGO.

Moreover, part of the equipment (inlet, shut-off valves and gas pipe riser) is common property, and part of the equipment, including a gas shut-off valve, an individual meter and consumption devices (stove, boiler, water heater) are the individual property of the owner of the apartment and are called intra-apartment gas equipment (VKGO).

A bit of history

In the past, control over the technical condition of all in-house gas equipment, including the common part of the gas pipeline and in-house networks, was carried out by the city gas service. Older people remember well the routine visits of gas workers who control the operation of gas equipment.

As part of the control, not only the serviceability of gas equipment was checked, but also skill.

In 2003, the situation changed dramatically. The Government of the Russian Federation adopted the “Safety Rules for Gas Distribution and Gas Consumption Systems”, according to which control over the technical condition of the VDGO was taken out of the control of Rostekhnadzor, but the control functions were not transferred to anyone. Moreover, the repair and technical equipment of the domestic gas facilities did not require licensing.

Simply put, anyone could service gas networks and gas equipment! It is not surprising that enterprising citizens who have neither special equipment nor knowledge have taken up the work. Alas, gas does not forgive mistakes.

Numerous accidents and explosions of household gas became a response to the disorganization of the country's gas economy.

The situation changed somewhat only in 2008 after the adoption of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 549 of July 21, 2008 approving the “Rules for the supply of gas to meet the domestic needs of citizens” and the Order of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation No. 239 of June 26, 2009 on the “Procedure the maintenance of repair of in-house gas equipment”, in accordance with which all responsibility for the serviceability of gas equipment is shifted to citizens.

This means that the one who has a gas stove, boiler or column is fully responsible for its safe operation.

Later, in 2013, the "Rules for the use of gas in terms of ensuring safety in the use and maintenance of in-house and in-house gas equipment in the provision of public gas supply services" were adopted, not only fixing the responsibility of users for the serviceability and connection of gas equipment, but also obliging them to conclude contracts for maintenance of VDGO and VDKO.

The rules clearly define the list of maintenance work for the VDGO. It includes:

  • equipment inspection
  • checking the tightness of connections
  • checking the completeness and integrity of gas furnaces, boilers and columns
  • checking the performance of shut-off valves, lubricating them and replacing them if necessary
  • chimney draft check
  • conducting safety training

All this list of works should be carried out at least once every three years.

If you have a gas oven, ensure its safe operation

It is clear that the vast majority of citizens do not have special equipment and knowledge to carry out technical maintenance of the VDGO. Therefore, the same "Rules for the use of gas" oblige all owners of apartments with gas equipment to conclude a maintenance contract with an organization supplying gas.

For the maintenance of the common house part of the gas pipeline, the management company concludes an agreement with the gas supplier.

The complex of maintenance works includes not only periodic inspection of equipment and elimination of identified defects, but also emergency dispatch support.

If the owner of the apartment refuses to conclude an agreement for the VDGO, the gas service may stop gas supply.

Summing up

Maintenance of in-house gas equipment (VDGO) should be carried out at least once every three years. It is carried out by its technical service for gas networks.

Owners of apartments and houses with natural gas are required to conclude an agreement for the conduct of VDGO. This should not be neglected, because gas equipment is a source of increased danger!

In accordance with Article 8 of the Federal Law "On Gas Supply in the Russian Federation", the Government of the Russian Federation decides:

1. Approve the attached:

Rules for the use of gas in terms of ensuring safety in the use and maintenance of in-house and in-house gas equipment in the provision of utility services for gas supply;

in agreement with the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation, within 6 months, approve an instruction on the safe use of gas to meet household needs.

3. Federal Tariff Service:

b) submit within 3 months to the Government of the Russian Federation a draft act on amendments to the Basic Provisions for the formation and state regulation of gas prices and tariffs for services for its transportation on the territory of the Russian Federation, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated December 29, 2000 No. 1021, which provide for the inclusion of a fee for emergency dispatch support of in-house and in-house gas equipment in the tariff for the services of gas distribution organizations for the transportation of gas.

4. The Federal Service for Environmental, Technological and Nuclear Supervision approve within 6 months the rules for conducting technical diagnostics of in-house and in-house gas equipment.

Document overview

The procedure for the use of gas has been determined in terms of ensuring the safe use and maintenance of in-house and in-house gas equipment in the provision of utility services for gas supply.

The requirements for the organization of the safe use and maintenance of gas equipment are given. The latter are provided through the implementation of the following set of works (services).

Firstly, maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment. A minimum list of relevant works (services) has been fixed.

Secondly, emergency dispatch support. Thirdly, technical diagnostics of gas equipment. Fourth, equipment replacement.

A prerequisite for the safe use of gas equipment is the proper maintenance of smoke and ventilation ducts in residential premises and apartment buildings.

The procedure and conditions for concluding and executing an agreement on the maintenance and repair of in-house and (or) in-house gas equipment are prescribed, including the rights, obligations and responsibilities of the parties, as well as the procedure for settlements under the agreement.

The procedure and conditions for the suspension of gas supply are determined. There are cases when the contractor is obliged to suspend the gas supply, and when he has the right to do it at his own discretion (both with prior notice to the customer, and without it).

In addition, adjustments were made to a number of acts of the Government of the Russian Federation. These are the rules for maintaining common property in an apartment building; gas supplies to meet household needs of citizens; provision of public services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings.
