Hydraulic tests are set to begin on parts of the main heating networks at the Nagornaya Thermal Power Plant. The checks will affect the first The tests will involve pumping water at higher-than-usual pressure through the pipelines. This method helps identify hidden leaks or weak spots in the network.

Local authorities have warned drivers not to park near manhole covers or outdoor heating infrastructure. The restriction aims to ensure quick access for maintenance teams if repairs are needed. The work forms part of routine inspections to maintain the heating system’s reliability before the colder months. Engineers will monitor pressure levels closely to assess the condition of the pipes.
Once completed, the tests will confirm whether any sections of the network require urgent attention. Residents may notice temporary changes in water temperature and pressure during the checks. The power plant has not announced how long the process will take.
