In addition, installation of heat meters is a major incentive to conserve resources. Only in this way the process of introducing energy-saving technologies can be started from below and not from the government under pressure. "Our experience proves: as soon as the house appears The heat, people immediately think about what measures will enable them to reduce the size of utility bills, – tells Tatyana Kislyakova, director of sales and marketing for the Russian representative office Kamstrup, world leader in heat meters. – The population is ready to reduce energy consumption, if it brings real benefits.
