Title: Tarrant Texas Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice of Broken, Unsafe, or Inadequate Heater and Demand for Immediate Remedy Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to inform you about a concerning issue within the rental property located at [property's address] in Tarrant, Texas. It has come to my attention that the heater within the premises is currently broken, unsafe, or inadequately functioning. I kindly request immediate attention and necessary repairs to rectify this situation swiftly for the comfort and safety of all residents. Upon moving in, I expected the heater to provide a safe and functioning source of warmth during the colder months. Regrettably, I have come across a number of issues that warrant immediate action. I would like to draw your attention to the following concerns: 1. No Heat: Despite adjusting the thermostat and using the heater as intended, there is no warm air being circulated throughout the property. As a result, my living conditions during the winter have been extremely uncomfortable, making it difficult to carry out daily activities efficiently and maintain a healthy environment. 2. Inadequate Heating: On the few occasions when the heater does emit warm air, it fails to reach an adequate temperature, unable to keep the premises properly heated. This insufficiency poses health risks to the occupants, especially during cold snaps, and could lead to further damage caused by freezing temperatures. 3. Potential Safety Hazards: In addition to the lack of sufficient heating, I have experienced worrying signs indicating potential safety hazards associated with the heater. These concerns include malfunctioning or unsettling noises, strange odors, or even smoke emanating from the unit. Such occurrences pose a significant risk to personal safety, property damage, and even potential health hazards like carbon monoxide poisoning. Considering the severity of this matter, I formally demand that you take immediate action to remedy the heater-related issues within [specified timeframe, e.g., 48 hours]. It is crucial to resolve these problems promptly, given the potential consequences they may have on the well-being and living conditions of all tenants. In light of these circumstances, I kindly request that you provide confirmation of your plan to resolve the heater-related problems by responding to this notice in writing within [specified timeframe, e.g., 24 hours]. I expect an adequate resolution to be swiftly implemented, ensuring a safe and comfortable living environment for all residents. Should the specified timeframe pass without any response or appropriate action taken, I will unfortunately be compelled to seek legal remedies and explore all available options to rectify the situation, which may include contacting the relevant housing authorities or seeking legal counsel. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I trust that as a responsible landlord, you prioritize the safety and comfort of your tenants. I remain hopeful that this issue will be addressed promptly, fostering a cooperative and satisfactory resolution.
