heating in Orange County NY

Postby mb277171 » Thu Jan 10, 2008 8:21 pm

Could some one help me out? I would like to know if there is a minimum requirment for the landlord who supplies heat. My apartment is usually around 62-64 degrees and its cold... is there a minimum he has to keep it at by law.

That's not correct as it applies to NYC, not Orange County.
