    what should the replacement of the gas meter look like? Is Pgnig obliged to inform the customer in writing about the replacement? Can they enter the apartment and rummage around the stove?

    To replace the counter, you don't have to mess with the stove, but after replacing it, they should check the installation and that's why they want to come in. If they don't inform you and there's no one home, they won't break in.

    First, what does a cooker have to do with the counter?
    The next time you let them in is after the competition. :cry:

    Yes, it does, because this is how they bleed air and release air from the pipes after opening the main valve.

    Recently there were some people for replacement. The meter from 2012 probably shouldn't be replaced yet? I let it in and they replaced it. They told me to turn on the burners on the stove. I don't know if there's anything to worry about now or not?

    And I would also like to ask if they are obliged to inform me in writing?

    Probably yes, because for your safety they have to bleed the pipes. It doesn't matter whether you have a meter at home or in the stairwell, especially outside the house.
    Maybe not in writing, but a note on the staircase or in the door will suffice.

    Or rather, does it mean that they are obliged to inform whether the meter should already be replaced?

    But the thing is, I didn't get any information!

    My husband simply met them in the staircase and signed something

    Well, then your husband was informed, but he didn't tell you about it. It doesn't have to be in writing, they just informed him about it. The point here is to get to the room where the meter is located, replace it, bleed it and that's it.
    They must bleed the pipes, because if you were not aware that there was air in the pipeline, you would turn on the tap. Thinking that there was a flame burning under it, she went for a bath "for example", and it was not impossible for a tragedy to happen.

Topic summary

It is clarified that while the gas meter replacement does not require access to the stove, technicians may need to enter the apartment to check the installation and bleed air from the pipes after replacing the meter. Customers are not necessarily informed in writing; verbal communication or a note may suffice. Concerns were raised about whether a meter from 2012 should be replaced, and it was noted that the presence of air in the pipes poses safety risks if not properly managed during the replacement process.
