I would like to emphasize that this situation is urgent and requires immediate attention. Living without proper heating not only puts my health at risk but may also lead to potential property damage resulting from freezing pipes or other related issues. In accordance with Oregon State law (ORS § 90.322), it is the landlord's responsibility to provide habitable living conditions, including a functional heating system. Therefore, I kindly request that you promptly schedule repairs and provide a specific timeline for when the issue will be resolved. Additionally, please update me on the steps you are taking to address this matter as soon as possible. If the matter is not resolved within a reasonable timeframe, I may seek legal advice to ensure my rights as a tenant are protected. I trust that you will act promptly to rectify this situation.
