I was flying once with the then-head of CNN in Russia who married a Russian woman. She was from such a super cold region and they visited her family several times, also during winter. He mentioned that no matter the temperature, they always had boiling hot water in taps and that, looking at the state of the pulling and overall heating centrals, he never understood how they managed this. This boiling hot water extravagance in these cold coats was something a Russian from Moscow also find le about, so it is probably a thing.
