I am writing to bring to your immediate attention a pressing matter concerning the condition of the heating system in the rental property located at [Rental Property Address], Albuquerque, New Mexico. Unfortunately, I have encountered significant issues with the heater that urgently require your attention. Upon regular use, it has become apparent that the heater is non-functional and poses various safety hazards. I have observed and experienced the following problems: 1. Broken Heater: The heater fails to generate any heat, despite repeated attempts to adjust the temperature controls and ensure proper power supply. Consequently, the indoor temperature has dropped significantly, making the living conditions extremely uncomfortable and unsuitable for in habitation during cold weather. 2. Unsafe Heater: To exacerbate the situation, I have noticed multiple signs indicating potential safety risks associated with the heater. These include strange odors emanating from the unit, sporadic loud noises during operation, and occasional slight electrical shocks when touching the control panel. These factors indicate a probable malfunctioning of critical internal components, posing serious risks to me and other residents. 3. Inadequate Heating: Even when the heater was functional, it consistently failed to provide adequate heating throughout the rental property. The thermostat readings did not correspond to the desired temperature settings, resulting in inefficient climate control and an unwarranted increase in utility expenses. Given the present circumstances, I kindly request your immediate attention and urge you to take prompt action to rectify the aforementioned issues. As your tenant, I have a rightful expectation of inhabiting a safe, comfortable, and habitable environment, as mandated by the New Mexico Tenant Rights Act. Therefore, I kindly request that you arrange for an emergency inspection and repair of the heating system by a qualified HVAC professional within the next [reasonable timeframe, such as 48 hours]. Additionally, please ensure that any associated costs for repairs, replacements, or professional services required are borne by the landlord, as specified in our rental agreement. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter and provide a detailed plan of action regarding the heater repairs within [reasonable timeline, such as 72 hours]. Failure to address this issue within a reasonable timeframe would compel me to consider alternative measures, such as submitting a complaint to local housing authorities or engaging legal assistance. I trust that you will promptly rectify this situation to ensure a safe, habitable environment. I look forward to your immediate attention, cooperation, and resolution of this matter. Should you require any further information or wish to discuss the issue, please do not hesitate to contact me via the aforementioned contact details.
