Housing Health and Safety Rating System (England) | Landlord Responsibility for Repairs and Maintenance (England)
We have a landlord questioning why it is his responsibility to replace a broken convector heater (only heating in the room).
I know it is a legal requirement but cant put my finger on the Legislation. Could you point me to the correct link or article please.
many thanks

It is a legal requirement for the landlord to keep in repair anything which heats the space in a dwelling under section 11 Landlord and Tenant Act 1985:
Also there is some legislation enforced by local authorities (HHSRS) which the landlord really doesn’t want to be involved with so should repair without delay!
