"Today, the total length of heating networks in the capital is over 19,000 kilometers, so we're starting hydraulic testing early to ensure the utilities and equipment are ready for the upcoming fall and winter. Work has already begun on sections that can be isolated from the main heating system without disconnecting consumers," said Pyotr Biryukov.

By the end of April, 55 stages of hydraulic testing are planned on pipelines with a total length of 234.2 kilometers. The work will be carried out in all administrative districts.

Organizing heating network testing is one of the key areas of preparation for the heating season. Their primary objective is to identify potentially unreliable sections in advance and promptly restore them to ensure uninterrupted heat supply to consumers during the season. MOEK specialists conduct the bulk of their hydraulic testing from May to September, after the heating is shut off.

During summer work on the heating system, specialists rewire pipelines using modern technologies, conduct preventative and major repairs to heating stations and central heating units, and maintain and repair in-house heating and hot water supply systems.
