How to register water meters installed independently?

Compared to professionals, this is a less practical option because you need to have certain installation skills. But in this case, you can’t do without the services of a licensed company, since they will have to seal the device. After sealing, the company issues the documents necessary for registering the device in the information and settlement center. All other actions are the same as described above.

Before making water meters for self-installation, you need to go to the management company, where they will check the water meter data (number on the data sheet, date of issue and installation). In addition, the management company will record the meter readings on the day the installation was made.

Important! Registration of self-mounted water meters has its own advantages. The user buys the water meter on his own. This means that he can choose the best option from several. In addition, there is an opportunity to save, because the services of a service company are not cheap.
