Description

This form is a letter to provide the Landlord with legal notice of the fact that there is insufficient heat in the leased premises. Tenant is requesting that the Landlord remedy this situation by the addition or repair of heating units. Subject: Urgent Matter: Inadequacy of Heating Resources — Insufficient Heat in [Property Address] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of utmost urgency regarding the inadequacy of the heating resources in the rented property located at [Property Address] in Wichita, Kansas. Despite the efforts put forth to adjust the heating system, I regret to inform you that the current level of heat provided is insufficient, resulting in considerable discomfort during the colder months. Firstly, I would like to acknowledge the promptness with which you have addressed previous maintenance issues and appreciate the general upkeep of the property. However, the deficiency in the heating system remains a pressing concern that warrants immediate attention to ensure a habitable living environment. Throughout winter, my household members and I have been enduring excessively low temperatures within the premises. Our repeated attempts to regulate and adjust the thermostat have proven futile, as it fails to provide consistent and adequate heat distribution across the property. Even with the thermostat set to the maximum temperature, the indoor climate remains uncomfortably cold, hindering our daily activities and jeopardizing our health. The substandard heating not only creates discomfort but also poses potential health risks, particularly for vulnerable individuals such as children, the elderly, and those prone to respiratory ailments. It is crucial to acknowledge our collective responsibility to provide a safe and habitable space for tenants, as stated by the Kansas Landlord-Tenant Act. I kindly request that you expedite the necessary repairs or assessments to rectify the insufficient heating issue promptly. It would be greatly appreciated if you could arrange for a licensed technician specializing in heating systems to inspect and address the matter comprehensively. Any costs associated with the repair should be covered by the landlord, as specified in the lease agreement. In the meantime, I kindly request your assistance in providing temporary heating alternatives to mitigate the current discomfort endured by my family and me. This could include providing space heaters or other suitable heating options until the primary heating system is restored to full functionality. Moreover, I find it imperative to mention that the Kansas Landlord-Tenant Act outlines a landlord's responsibility to maintain a reasonable level of heat during the winter months. Failure to address this issue promptly may be considered a breach of lease terms, potentially leading to further actions to ensure our rights as tenants are protected. I remain hopeful that you will prioritize this matter and take immediate action to rectify the insufficient heating resources. Please provide a prompt response outlining your plan of action, as well as any additional information or documents required. Should you need to discuss this matter further, please do not hesitate to contact me at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address]. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I trust in your swift responsiveness to resolve the inadequacy of the heating resources issue. I look forward to your prompt action and the restoration of a comfortable living environment within the property. Yours sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [Tenant Contact Information]
