Letter from Tenant to Landlord Regarding Broken Heater and Demand for Immediate Remedy [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice of Broken Heater, Unsafe or Inadequate Heating, and Demand for Immediate Remedy Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to inform you about a significant issue with the heating system in my rented apartment at [Apartment Address]. It has come to my attention that the heater is broken, rendering it unsafe and inadequate to maintain a comfortable living environment. As your tenant, I kindly request that you take immediate action to remedy this situation. Since the onset of colder weather, I have noticed consistent problems with the heating system. Despite my attempts to adjust the thermostat and follow the provided instructions, the heater fails to produce any warm air. This lack of proper heating has caused severe discomfort and inconvenience for myself and other tenants residing in the building. It is crucial to address this matter promptly, as the inadequate heating poses significant health and safety risks. The absence of functional heating exposes tenants to potential health issues related to prolonged exposure to cold temperatures. Furthermore, the lack of a properly functioning heating system can result in frozen pipes, which may lead to expensive damages to the property. As a responsible tenant, I have exhausted all reasonable efforts to resolve the issue independently. Considering the severity and urgency of the situation, I kindly request that you arrange for immediate repairs or replacement of the broken heating system to ensure the provision of a safe and habitable living environment. I would greatly appreciate if you prioritize this matter and take necessary action within [reasonable time frame — e.g., 48 hours]. In compliance with the rental agreement terms, I urge you to schedule a visit from a qualified heating technician to assess and resolve the issue promptly. I kindly request that you keep me informed about the progress of the repairs and provide an estimated timeline for when the heating system will be restored to full functionality. Please be aware that failure to address this matter promptly will not only be a violation of your duties as a landlord, but it may also result in potential legal actions to seek adequate remedies, including possible rent withholding, termination of the lease agreement, or involvement of relevant housing authorities. I hope that we can resolve this matter amicably and restore a comfortable living environment within the shortest possible time. I appreciate your attention to this urgent matter, and I look forward to a prompt response.
