Verification of water meters has risen sharply

  • Mar 26, 2021

What a hell is going on with the verification of meters! Compared to last year, the cost has increased by 2-3 times and it is not so easy to find a normal office for verification.

Verification of water meters has risen sharply

Today I went to mos.ru to transmit meter readings and got just such a sad picture: readings are not accepted, "the period for checking the meter has expired." And, of course, they could not tell in advance.

I took from a friend the contact of the office that checked her last year for 500 rubles, and found that the same office now wants 1,300 rubles for checking one meter.

I looked at what Vodouchet LLC did the verification in 2017 and it cost 550 rubles then. I called the phones - they do not answer. I looked to see if it is in the register of organizations accredited for the right to calibrate household water meters. Yes, the phones are the same. According to the name on the Internet, there is a site vodoychet.ru with a verification price of 799 rubles, but on the site of this vodoYchet there are neither the details of the organization, nor the TIN. I read the reviews - they are terrible. I called and asked which organization would be indicated on the verification certificate, they said "The Single Center for Saving Resources." A very strange site.

The site of this "Single Center for Saving Resources" indicates the cost of verification "from 950 rubles."

There is such a site "Rating of companies for the verification of water meters in Moscow" https://o-vode.com/useful-articles/poverka-schetchikov-vody-v-moskve/ .

I looked who was the cheapest there - Rostest-Moscow with a price of 448 rubles 40 kopecks, but only on their website it is written wonderful: "The water meter must be delivered by the customer to the Federal State Budgetary Institution" Rostest-Moscow "at the address: Nakhimovsky Prospekt, house 31". I wonder how they imagine this despite the fact that the meter is sealed and if you remove it, there will be no water in the apartment.

The next price is "Vodouchet Service" with a price of 800 rubles. I called. They say the master will come within three weeks, but maybe later. :)

As a result, I ordered a verification at the EconomMontazhService office for 900 rubles. They promised that the master would come within one to five days, but the master called and promised to come tomorrow.

In the register of organizations accredited for the right to calibrate household water meters (by the way, here is a link to it: https://poverka.fsa.gov.ru ) 265 verification offices. I wonder how they all managed to come to an agreement and raise the price of this simple procedure at least twice with the fact that before that the price did not rise for many years or are there some objective reasons for such a price increase?

upd.: The hell continues. The master came, looked at the counter, said that they did not believe such (model "Alekseevsky") and left. This despite the fact that yesterday the dispatcher asked me for the model of the counter.
