How to connect water to a private house - procedure, documents


Connection to water supply

In order to lay a sewer system or connect to a water supply system, a large amount of documents must be officially completed and approved. The procedure for connecting cold water is specified in Russian Government Decree No. 644 on the use of water supply lines, and is also determined by the law on construction and water supply. To begin installation work, you need to draw up an agreement on connection to the central highway.

There is no need to obtain permission to build a water pipeline if you do not plan to connect to the public network. In some cases, the construction of a well or the digging of a well must be coordinated with the water utility. Therefore, before making a closed system, it is recommended to discuss this with the relevant organizations.

For those who need to install a drain and water supply line from the central network, you must fill out an application for permission to connect to the water supply. A sample of this document can be seen below.

It serves as a basis for work if the user needs to connect a new site to an existing network or increase the maximum volume of water that can be used. Within 5 working days, excluding weekends and holidays, he should receive a response in the form of data based on the water supply pattern in the area and the organization that is responsible for it.

After this, you can contact the water utility to obtain technical conditions for connecting to a section of the water supply network. If the applicant has information about the required volume of water supply, then an application can be submitted to the water utility without obtaining technical conditions.

It is prohibited by law to connect to the sewer system yourself. If the insertion was permitted by the relevant services, the user will receive an administrative penalty. To prevent this from happening, you need to contact the organization that issues technical conditions and permission to carry out work, its subsidiary company or the owner of the pipeline.

Within 3 working days, this company must check the documentation for compliance with the data provided. At the same time, it is necessary to determine the balance of supply and outflow of incoming water, the possibility of performing work depending on the height of the building, the number of floors, as well as the nearest section of the main line.

If you do not submit a complete package of documents or the pressure of the main line is not enough to meet the needs of the applicant, then he will receive a corresponding notification within 3 days, after which the user must submit the missing papers or change the network requirements to more suitable ones. He must complete all these procedures within 20 days after receiving the notification.

If the deadline has expired and the applicant has not brought documents or has not changed the current requirements, then his application will be cancelled. Once this decision is made, he will be sent a rejection notice within up to 3 days. If the documents are in order and the requirements can be fulfilled, then within 20 days he will receive an agreement on permission to tap into the water supply system, technical conditions, and a payment calculation.

Permission to draw up a contract

The law prohibits the refusal of a water supply service to draw up a contract and perform installation work if it is possible to satisfy the user’s request. If the requirements cannot be met due to technical reasons, a separate project should be drawn up, which will make it possible to fulfill the application using other methods.

Payment under the drawn up agreement must be made in the following amounts:

  • 35% of the price of the water supply system and its installation must be repaid within 15 days after agreement and signing of all papers on the start of work.
  • 50% of the payment must be paid before completion of work or within a period of up to 3 months.
  • 15% of the cost of plumbing and installation work must be paid after signing the certificate of completion of installation and checking the water supply after turning on the network.

An agreement on the use of water and sewerage is drawn up for a certain period, which is indicated in the document. If 1 month before the end of the service life the site owner or service provider does not submit an application to change or terminate the contract, then the time for using the network is automatically extended.

Transfer of executive and technical papers and execution of a contract for water supply

Connecting water to a private house
11As soon as the above steps are completed, we go to the local water utility and give the organization’s employees the executive and technical papers regarding the work performed to connect a private house or an entire street. Documents must be drawn up taking into account the requirements specified in SNiP. A topographic survey of the structure on a scale of 1 to 500 will also be required. After studying the papers, the authorized body gives permission to connect a private house to the central networks. Immediately after this, the connection is made and the corresponding act is drawn up.

According to the current procedure in the Russian Federation, the last stage is the execution of an agreement for the transfer of drinking water. These powers also lie within the scope of the local water utility. In this case, it is better to clarify the work schedule and visiting days in advance.

Documentation

The owner of the site, the one who has a power of attorney from him or the service with which he has entered into an agreement can submit an application to draw up an agreement to carry out work, connect water or change supplies. To obtain permission to connect to a neighbor’s water supply (the document sample is similar to the usual one) or the general supply network, you need:

  • For individuals, it is necessary to collect details in the form of a postal address of place of registration or residence, full name, identity confirmation document and data for further communication with the applicant.
  • Legal entities and private businesses must provide their number in the State Register and the date it was entered, TIN, current residential address with place of registration and postal code, as well as confirmation from the bank, which gives permission that the applicant can sign the contract.
  • The application must indicate the name and location of the site or facility that needs to be connected to the network.
  • Attach to the package of documents information about additional sources of water supply (volume and owner).

  • If there are no additional septic tanks (cesspools, treatment plants) on the site, and standards have been established for waste disposal through the sewer system, then it is necessary to indicate the properties of these restrictions and the number of changes in the volume of network use per year.
  • You must provide a copy of the site plan, which contains a sewerage laying diagram, a display of all constructed objects and their characteristics, as well as a list of residents.
  • Information should be provided about what type of activity is taking place on the site. This is necessary for carrying out standardized spillways.

You also need to attach to the list of documents for filing the application:

  • Copies of all concluded contracts for connection to the public network.
  • Copies of documents that are drawn up when connecting, flushing, and cleaning the line and equipment in the designated area or indoors.
  • A copy of the papers for measuring instruments (meters) to check these devices for compliance with state standards, their installation diagram and readings at the time of filing the application. If water consumption is less than 0.1 m3/hour, then installing a meter is not necessary, and, therefore, copies of the described documents are not needed.

  • A diagram of the location from which samples will be taken.
  • Copies of papers that confirm that the applicant owns this site.
  • A document on the maximum load on the water supply network, which indicates for what purpose the water will be used (everyday needs, fire system, swimming pool, irrigation).
  • Expert decision from federal or private SES, if required.

Before starting the application, it is recommended to make a topographic plan of the site with the help of surveyors, if you do not have one or it was drawn up more than 1 year ago.

Case 1 . Our company’s specialists designed a complex of cottage houses and received technical specifications for connecting them to the power supply.

Case 2 . A residential neighborhood was designed, and technical specifications for all types of utilities were ordered. Below are the specifications for gas supply.

Drafting

To obtain permission for land work for a water pipeline, you need to draw up a site plan. This may be necessary if the premises are undergoing major renovations or for newly installed buildings. To obtain such design documentation, you can contact private architectural firms or relevant specialists in the company that owns the water supply network.

During the compilation process, it is required to provide the current number of people living on the site, as well as a layout of sanitary facilities and household appliances that are connected to the water supply. If there are additional sources of water on the site, they are also indicated. You will also need a house plan, a topographical survey of the site, the type of plumbing that is used and a list of restrictions on the use of the plumbing.

With the help of a ready-made project, you can understand the layout of the pipes, the size and material from which they are made, the thickness of the concrete screed if the water supply is installed in a wall or floor, as well as the required amount of material for installation and additional means for pumping water (if the pressure is insufficient).

Stormwater system, methods for arranging drainage

A difficult question is how to connect the drainage of a private residential building to the city sewerage system. After all, inserting storm drains into separate sewers is prohibited. It is necessary to develop separate conditions and install a pipeline to the general stormwater system. The most profitable option is to tap into a mixed sewer. The work can be combined and immediately connect the household and drainage pipes to the network.

Connection to the city storm water main

There are 3 ways to ensure rainwater drainage from the site:

  • Insertion into a city highway.
  • Diversion of the drainage system into the ground. Such a decision can lead to constant erosion of the soil and flooding of one’s own and neighbors’ basements.
  • Creating your own drainage system with a cleaning tank. The water is discharged into a container with filters, and the purified water is removed for reuse.

Technical conditions for water supply

Connection to the central sewer network

To connect to the city stormwater system, documentation is drawn up at the preparatory stage, in the same way as for domestic wastewater drainage. The pipe is laid at an angle from the house to the entrance to the network. Use plastic pipes of smaller diameter.

The disadvantage of connection is the duration and organizational complexity of the procedure, dependence on the condition and cleanliness of the city pipe.

Autonomous system for a private home

The optimal solution for a private home is the arrangement of a drainage system. Water from the ground surface is pumped into drains and supplied through pipes to the receiving tank. A well equipped with filters is connected in series to the next container to collect purified water.

Technical conditions for water supply

Autonomous storm drain: water is reused

This type of storm drainage system has the following advantages:

  • Rainwater collection is organized throughout the entire area of ​​the site - in the yard, in the recesses the soil will not be eroded and water will not stagnate.
  • The effectiveness of the system depends only on the correct installation and correct calculation of the volume of the receiving tanks.
  • Autonomy: no need to pay for rainwater drainage or collect documents.

Video description

This video shows an example of drawing up a water supply plan:

The applicant must receive from the construction organization a package of documents, which includes:

  1. A title page that displays general data and contains an explanatory note.
  2. A plan diagram showing the location of the main water supply line.
  3. Pipe routing diagram, which indicates all the nodes and points at which the fastening is located.
  4. Three-dimensional diagram of the water supply and heating elements.
  5. List of materials used for installation and wiring, as well as what they are made of.

Without this diagram, it will be difficult to calculate the amount of water consumed and the correct location of the outlet to the main supply line.

  • When and how the user will submit data from the meter, if installed.
  • How the user will be informed if the service provider transfers its rights to another organization.
  • The conditions under which water will be supplied to those who are connected to the applicant’s water supply, if contractual obligations have been drawn up with the supplying company.

After installing all pipes and water supply units, it is required to draw up a report on the work performed, which must be signed by the applicant. If hidden work was done during the installation process, a separate form is required for this. They can be carried out when laying a pipeline. It is also required to draw up a SES report when flushing pipes and checking water quality for compliance with standards.

Validity period of technical conditions

In paragraph 10 of the “Rules for determining and providing technical conditions for connecting a capital construction project to engineering and technical support networks,” the issued document is valid for 3 to 5 years. The period may be changed in cases provided for by law. A period of 5 years is provided for large-scale development of land plots during the construction of multi-story buildings. After the end of the designated period, the specifications can be adjusted. The validity period begins from the date of issue.

Briefly about the main thing

Before submitting an application that will allow the signing of an agreement with a company supplying water supply services, it is required to make a project of the site listing all equipment that consumes water and a topographic map.

Independent connection and installation of water supply must be officially authorized by the relevant services, otherwise administrative punishment will be received.

A connection to the general water supply network may not be necessary if it is possible to install a personal well, borehole and septic tank.
