Bill Summary

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

AI Summary

This bill amends the Real Property Law to require landlords to install radiator covers in residential dwellings where a child 12 or younger resides, upon the written request of the tenant. The landlord has 90 days to complete the installation. Failure to do so is considered a breach of the warranty of habitability, allowing the tenant to deduct the reasonable cost of installing the cover from the rent. The bill also clarifies provisions related to calculating damages for a breach of the warranty of habitability.
