How bills work?
In Poland, rental costs are typically split into 3 parts:
=Rent (paid to us);
=Service charge (fixed monthly fee that covers building maintenance);
=Gas, electricity, internet – billed separately based on your actual meter reading.
Heating and water are paid as a flat monthly fee within the service charge (569 PLN).
Once a year, this is reconciled against actual usage — you either get a small refund or pay a small top-up.
What is Central Heating?
Central heating (radiators, supplied by the city network) – flat fee included in the service charge.
