As reported in the Energy Committee of St. Petersburg, on May 4 the stage of periodic heating began.

At this time, the hot water in the pipes will be started up in accordance with the weather outside: the higher the temperature on the street, the colder the batteries. At the same time, until the end of the heating season, kindergartens, schools, clinics, hospitals and other social institutions will not be cut off from heat. Let's note, usually they stop heating in the May holidays. In the year 2017, because of the cold spring, the batteries of St. Petersburgers cooled only on May 17.
