- in the absence of an appropriate contract with a power supply company;

- in the event of detecting the installation of additional parts to heating devices, as well as improper use of heat carriers in heating systems (water discharge from heating devices);

- in case of corrective, preventive maintenance work and emergency operations, including the prevention of fire or gas leakage;

- in accordance with the court’s decision;
