Since the beginning of this year, specialists from the city services complex have checked over 640 thousand gas stoves installed in Muscovites’ apartments. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.
“Gas safety issues are under special control, we conduct scheduled maintenance of all gasified housing stock in the capital every year. In January-May, we checked the operability and compliance with safety requirements of more than 640 thousand gas stoves, which is over 35 percent of the total number,” noted Petr Biryukov.
Gas workers eliminate minor problems on the spot, and if serious violations are detected, they eliminate safety hazards and provide recommendations for further operation and repair.
In the capital, more than 1.8 million families use gas stoves. In order for the equipment to operate safely, it is very important to check it in a timely manner. Responsibility for maintaining gas equipment in proper condition and replacing it rests with the owner or tenant of the residential premises.
The service life of a gas stove is on average 10-12 years. After that, gas taps wear out, burner diffusers become deformed, and the thermal insulation of the oven is damaged. It is impossible to maintain the safe operation of such devices; replacement is necessary.
The gas stove must be equipped with a gas control system, which stops the gas supply if the flame in the burner goes out.
Information on dates and times of gas equipment inspections is published in advance on the official website JSC Mosgaz, and is also placed on stands installed in entrances and courtyards.
