How will we pay for heat in October 2026? In the Krasnodar Territory, the heating season officially began on October 15. But even if the batteries are still cold, at the end of the month many residents will still receive receipts with a heating line, and even with a price increase. It all depends on whether the house has a common house heat meter (CDH): if you have a meter, pay for the heat actually consumed. That is, if the heating was not turned on in October, then you will not have to pay anything. If there is no meter, the payment is charged according to the standard. In Krasnodar and many cities in the region it is distributed in equal parts for 7 months of the year.
