The Minutemen have been warned.

Minsk heating networks will conduct aerial survey of heating lines with the help of a helicopter of the Ministry of Emergency Situations to identify faults, reported in "Minskenergo".

The branch "Minsk heating networks" of RUE "Minskenergo" announced about the upcoming work on aerial survey of heating networks of the capital. This is necessary to identify thermal anomalies in places of underground passage of pipelines, which, in turn, will allow to identify damage to pipes and their insulation, possible flooding of heat chambers and other faults.

Aerial survey will be carried out by a helicopter of the Ministry of Emergency Situations at an altitude of 500-600 meters using thermal imaging equipment. To obtain accurate data the work will be carried out in the evening and at night, as during the day thermal interference from traffic makes it difficult to diagnose underground utilities.

The schedule of overflights will be specified by specialists of the Ministry of Emergency Situations depending on weather conditions.

"We ask residents and guests of the capital with understanding to the activities being carried out. It's important for uninterrupted heat supply in the city," noted in Minskenergo.
