The Ministry explained when in Belarus will start to include heating in residential buildings

About when in our country will start to include heating in the housing stock, said Minister of housing and communal services Gennady Trubilo on the air of the TV channel “Belarus 1”, reports sb.by.

Gennady Trubilo drew attention to the fact that in recent years a number of regulatory documents have been adopted, which reduced the timing of the start of heating.

“If the average daily temperature does not exceed ten degrees, housing can already be included. Everything is taken on the ground by decisions of the executive committees. To date, 87 percent of the social infrastructure of the Vitebsk region has heating, and 97 percent in Minsk. The next step is to look at the temperature: if it is within three days below ten degrees, the connection of residential buildings will begin, he explained.

The heating season does not start in the country at once. The cause lies on the surface.

“We even have a significant temperature difference between Brest and Vitebsk. In the Vitebsk region, a decision has already been made to include social facilities. In the Brest region is not yet, but I think if the temperature there is lower, then decisions will be made, — said the Minister.

According to him, all regions have coped with preparations for the autumn-winter period. Heat sources received passports of readiness. Some consumers complete the submission of documents (term before October 1).

“In general, the situation in the country is stable. In principle, everyone is ready for the heating period, concluded Gennady Trubilo.
