Use this category for all costs incurred exclusively for the **hot water supply** which are to be recovered from the tenants.

Enter these costs here where **hot water and heating are produced by separate systems**. That is the case, for example, where the hot water is produced by individual instantaneous water heaters and therefore independently of the heating system.

These include, for example:

* energy costs for heating the hot water
* maintenance costs of the hot water system
* the costs of cleaning, operating or monitoring the system, where these are recoverable

{% hint style="info" %}
Repair costs do not belong in this category, because they generally may not be recovered from the tenants.
{% endhint %}

## Legally important

Only running operating costs are recoverable, and only under an effective agreement with the tenant. What matters are [Section 556 BGB](https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/bgb/__556.html) and [Sections 1 and 2 BetrKV](https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/betrkv/__2.html). For hot water, [Section 8 of the Heating Costs Ordinance](https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/heizkostenv/__8.html) applies and, with combined systems, [Section 9 of the Heating Costs Ordinance](https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/heizkostenv/__9.html).
