Home Renovation in Belarus: Updating Heating Systems in Stalin-Era Apartments Replacing heating systems in older buildings presents unique challenges. In Belarus, many apartments in Stalin-era buildings require extensive renovation. Vipsvarka.by, a local contractor, recently shared a video documenting such a project. The video shows the careful and detailed process of removing old radiators and pipes, installing new ones, and repairing the wall damage. The contractor emphasizes the importance of obtaining all necessary permits and documentation, a crucial step often overlooked. "In this type of building, you need a full package of documents for approval," explains Vipsvarka.by in the video. The video provides a valuable insight into the complexities of home renovation in older buildings and the importance of proper planning and permits. The project successfully demonstrates how to modernize heating systems while preserving the building's historical character.
