Looking for some advice here. My AC unit in my apartment kicked the bucket. It was included with the apartment, and is installed in a casement window on a fairly high floor (I’m not at all comfortable replacing this thing myself). I contacted my landlord ~3 weeks ago about this, and he sent back a list of a couple AC units on Amazon he was prepared to order. I responded that I didn’t really care which one, let’s just get it fixed (it’s July, and has been 90+ degrees several days). 2 weeks go by, and I hear nothing. I respond again, asking for an update, and he apologizes, telling me he’s out of town for work, and it slipped his mind. He’s ordered a new unit, and it should arrive within 5-7 days. When it arrives, we can schedule a time for the building super to install it.
So when all this is said and done, I’ll have gone ~4 weeks or so, during the hottest month of the year, without AC. I don’t imagine it’s unreasonable to request a discounted rent for next month. What would be an appropriate way of calculating that discount (assuming it is fair to ask at all). For reference, I pay $2000 for rent.
