As Deputy Mayor of Moscow Pyotr Biryukov told RIA Novosti, this measure is necessary for high-quality hydraulic testing, which makes it possible to detect unreliable sections of heating networks and take timely measures to eliminate them.

He noted that all preventive work will be completed by September. During this period, hydraulic tests will be carried out on 17,000 km of networks.
