Letter from Tenant to Landlord — Notice of Broken Heater and Demand for Immediate Remedy in Cape Coral, Florida [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice of Broken Heater and Demand for Immediate Remedy Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a significant issue with the heating system in the rental property located at [Rental Property Address] in Cape Coral, Florida. It has come to my attention that the heater is broken, rendering it unsafe and inadequate for maintaining a comfortable and habitable living environment. Since the colder months have arrived, it has become increasingly evident that the heating system is not functioning correctly. I have attempted to adjust the thermostat and ensure proper settings, but despite my efforts, the unit consistently fails to produce adequate heat. This malfunction poses a substantial health and safety risk, as it exposes me, as your tenant, to freezing indoor temperatures, which can lead to various health issues and discomfort. As a responsible tenant, it is my duty to promptly report any maintenance concerns to you. The defective heating system not only infringes upon my rights as stated in the lease agreement but also violates the implied warranty of habitability, which legally obligates you, as the landlord, to ensure that the premises are kept in good repair and are fit for human habitation. Considering the urgency and potential health risks involved, I kindly request that you take immediate action to remedy the broken heater situation. I would appreciate if you would arrange for a qualified technician to inspect, diagnose, and repair the heating system without delay. Additionally, please keep me informed of the scheduled maintenance visit and any necessary access arrangements. I understand that unforeseen circumstances can arise, but it is crucial that the heating system is fixed promptly to prevent further inconvenience and to ensure my safety and well-being during the colder months. If I do not receive a satisfactory response to this letter within [reasonable time], I may be compelled to explore legal avenues available to me as a tenant in order to ensure my right to a habitable dwelling. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I trust that our shared objective of maintaining a comfortable and safe living environment can be resolved promptly. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
