34. Hot water supply installation (item 11)
The availability of hot water is considered to exist in the housing units when the hot water is piped to the bathroom, kitchen, or other toilets group from the public community network, regardless of the means of heating (steam -- generating station, boilers etc.). Dwellings where boilers are used only for hot water used by a bathtub or shower or where the heating of water is made only with electric boilers are not considered as having hot water supply.
In the case, that item 11 was marked as code 1 (the dwelling has a hot water supply system), the following correlations will be verified:
For item 10--water supply installations--a mark of x will be recorded at code 1 and for item 10a also code 1 (the dwelling has water supply system from public network);
For item 12--sewerage installation, a mark of x will be recorded at code 1 or 2 (the dwelling has sewerage installation).
It is considered that the dwellings have hot water also for the dwellings from the localities where it is used, both to the kitchen and bathroom, the geothermal water only or/and for heating. In these cases, the above-mentioned correlations are not considered. When the housing units have the heating based only geothermal water supplies (without any hot water system installations for the kitchen and bathroom)--these dwellings are not considered as having hot water supply.
