[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [Wilmington, North Carolina, 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 serious issue concerning the heater in [Apartment/Unit Number] of [Property Address]. As a tenant, I have encountered significant problems with the heater, which I believe pose a potential safety hazard, and I am requesting immediate resolution to this matter. Firstly, for the past [number of days/weeks], I have noticed that the heater in my apartment is no longer functioning properly. Despite several attempts to adjust the settings, the heater fails to provide adequate warmth, leaving me exposed to increasingly chilly temperatures. This poses a considerable inconvenience as winter progresses, making my living conditions extremely uncomfortable and unbearable. Moreover, I have noticed alarming signs that the heater may not only be broken but also potentially unsafe. There is a distinct smell of burning or gas leakage whenever the heater is running, which raises serious concerns regarding the safety of both my wellbeing and the property as a whole. I understand the importance of maintaining a safe living environment, and I cannot stress enough how urgent it is to address this potentially hazardous situation. Given the severity of the situation, I kindly request an immediate inspection and repair of the heater by a qualified professional. I believe this is crucial not only for my comfort but also for my safety and well-being. Prompt attention to this matter will avoid any further inconvenience to both parties and ensure compliance with all applicable housing regulations and laws. In addition, I expect that you will cover the expenses associated with repairing the broken heater. As outlined in our lease agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to maintain the heating system in good working condition throughout the duration of my tenancy. I trust that you will uphold your obligations and address this issue without delay. Please provide me with a written confirmation of receipt of this notice and your plan of action to resolve the heater problem. If I do not receive a satisfactory response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 72 hours], I will have no choice but to pursue further action to protect my rights as a tenant. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution, ensuring a safe and comfortable living environment within the premises. Sincerely, [Your Name]
