My family called a fire truck because of a fire, and then the property asked my family to pay 50 thousand for water. Should I pay this money?

In daily life, when we encounter a fire, we usually think of calling the fire alarm number 1 19, and then the fireman will drive the fire truck to put out the fire. When it comes to fire fighting, people will definitely think of using water. Generally, every time a fire truck arrives at the scene, it needs a lot of water to put out the fire. However, no one knows whether the cost of fire water should be borne by individuals or the public.

In fact, everyone knows that fire protection belongs to the public facilities of each community. This should be the responsibility of the community administrator, and now it is generally managed by the property company. The water used by the fire brigade is municipal tap water, but there is a pipeline from the water inlet end of the community, and it only leads to the fire pool through this pipeline. This water fee is finally counted on the total water meter of the property, but it will definitely not be counted on the owner.

According to the relevant laws and regulations, the cost of fire fighting and rescue in China is borne by the municipal government, including vehicle fuel cost, loss cost and water fee for fire fighting. It is absolutely impossible to ask the people for money. No matter who caught fire and called the fire truck, no matter how much water was used after the fire brigade arrived, the property could not charge the residents for it.

To sum up, the water put out by your household fire truck is free, and the property requires your family to pay 50,000 yuan for water, which is pure extortion. Even if residents charge water, one ton of water will only be charged to 2.8 yuan. The water fee is 50,000 yuan, which is equivalent to the loss of 17857 tons of water in your family. But such a huge amount of water is almost enough for a fire truck to use continuously for five days. Your house is just a house, no matter how big the fire is, it will take an hour to put out. Fires in several areas can be put out with a maximum of several hundred pieces of water and a water fee of 50 thousand. The property is clearly bullying your home, and you don't know how to manage fire water and water charges, so you rob it while the fire is raging. In the face of such unreasonable demands, you can show the relevant legal provisions to the other party. If the other party is still unreasonable, call the police directly and let the police solve this matter.
