Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the real property law, in relation to the installation of radiator covers

AI Summary

This bill amends the New York Real Property Law to require landlords to install radiator covers upon the written request of a tenant with a child 12 years old or younger residing in the dwelling. The landlord has 90 days to complete the installation. If the landlord fails to install the covers, it is considered a breach of the warranty of habitability, allowing the tenant to deduct the reasonable cost of installation from the rent. The bill also outlines how damages are determined in cases where the warranty is breached.
