            or occupant shall cause any service, facility, equipment
            or utility supplied in accordance with the requirements
            of this article to be removed, shut off, or discontinued
            for any occupied dwelling, dwelling unit, rooming house,
            or rooming unit except for such temporary interruption as
            may be necessary when actual repairs or alterations are
            being expeditiously made. For purposes of this Code,
            whenever it is established that the interruption was for
