If the new house is unoccupied, can I move in first?

You can move into a new house before you move in, but if you pay more attention to the admission ceremony, you can cook without fire after you move in. If you don't pay attention to the admission ceremony, you can just move in and cook with fire, and you don't need the admission ceremony afterwards. Occupation is a local custom, not a necessary process.

Matters needing attention in new house occupancy

1. Pay the utilities in advance.

In residential buildings in many cities, we need to pay for utilities in advance. Generally, we store the wiring in the water card and electricity card in advance before we can use water and electricity.

In fact, this step should be done before we decorate ourselves. Everyone needs water and electricity when decorating, so we need to pay some water and electricity in advance. However, in the process of renovation, the utilities we paid in advance may have been used up, so we need to pay some in advance before moving into the new house.

When we first move into a new house, we need to buy some new household appliances and use water for cleaning, so we must pay some utilities in advance, otherwise, if we temporarily cut off water and electricity, it will have a great impact on our lives.

2. Ventilate the windows to remove formaldehyde

The building materials we use for decoration and the newly bought furniture may contain some harmful substances such as formaldehyde. If these substances live in it, if the concentration of formaldehyde in the air is too high, it will have a great impact on our health and endanger our health.

However, formaldehyde has a certain release cycle, and the release rate of formaldehyde in the initial cycle is the fastest. After this period of time, the release rate of formaldehyde will slow down, and the concentration of formaldehyde in the air will also decrease, which will basically not cause too much harm to the human body.

Therefore, before you move into a new house, you must first open the window to ventilate and remove harmful gases such as formaldehyde from the air.

Under normal circumstances, it is recommended that you open the window and ventilate for 3~6 months before moving into the new house. Never move directly into the new house after renovation, it is likely to be affected by formaldehyde.

3. Open natural gas

Generally speaking, natural gas is basically installed in urban residential buildings. In fact, when we handed over the house, we already had natural gas, but loading natural gas does not mean that there is gas in the pipeline, so everyone needs to turn on the natural gas before moving into the new house, otherwise there is no way to cook.

You can call the local gas company in advance to ask what materials need to be prepared for opening natural gas, and then bring relevant information to the gas company for opening. After opening, you should install batteries on the gas meter and gas stove at home so that they can be used normally.

Whether you want to turn on the gas or change the gas pipeline after check-in, you need professionals to operate. Don't do it yourself, otherwise it is likely to cause a safety accident.

Step 4: Clean

Finally, before moving into a new house, what we have to do is to do a general cleaning at home. Only when the home is clean can we live more comfortably.
