Hypothetical question

I've been trying to resolve this in Florida on my own but I'm stuck.

landlord won't fix broken heating. I've been dealing with this for about 12 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been in this property for 4 years. My monthly rent is $4,135. I have a written lease.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. Caveat: I'm not your lawyer and this isn't legal advice lol

Illustrative response

Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
