839 charsThe most serious claimed breach of the warranty of habitability is the total failure to provide heat and hot water from September 27 through October 27, 1977. The tenant testified that he purchased a heater, but he presented no testimony respecting electrical charges or the cost of the heater. He testified that the value of the apartment for which he was paying a rental of $450 per month, was reduced to $50 per month, since it could be used only as a storage area. However, he and his wife continued to live in the apartment. The owner’s expert testified that a similar apartment, even without heat and hot water, had a value of $275 to $500 a month. After consideration of all of the relevant circumstances, the court finds that the value of the apartment was reduced by $275 during the time when heat and hot water were not supplied.
