if you live in the uk then it is a legal requirement for your landlord to provide hot water, if you're outside uk then laws very massively. Go to the Citizens Advice Bureau to find out how to take action against them.

Ask the agent to barter a sum in repayment for the inconvenience. Draw to the agent's interest that an offence change into committed with the aid of them as you should were issued with a Landlord's gas safe practices certificate on the day you moved in. no longer to finish that attracts a maximum superb of £5000 or 3 months in detention center, or both. that would want to wake them up. i'd have theory that a loose month might want to be a great gesture.

Greetings!
Have you ever heard the term "cold water flat"? In major tenemants in NY and Chicago it is not unusal to see older buildings that don't have hot water all the time.
They only provide it when the heat is on and the boiler heating the radiators also heats the hot water supply.
Good Luck

we are responsible for having hot water. we don't pay our gas bill we have no hot water. but if the landlord is responsible for the utilities and its included in your rent then you should look into some legal recourse if he refuses to take care of it. Hes also responsible if it has something to do with disrepair.

I'm not sure about residential property but I know it is illegal not to have hot water in commercial buildings.

Usually you need to sign a specific waiver for your landlord to not supply hot water.
