What are a renter’s rights (and a landlord’s responsibilities) when it comes to air conditioning in Colorado
From having an A/C unit at all, to repairing it when it breaks, the details depend on a renter’s individual circumstances. Denver7 posed some top questions to Drew Hamrick, an attorney with the Apartment Association of Metro Denver.
“There is no obligation that people have air conditioning in their homes,” Hamrick explained. “When you’re buying a house or renting a house, if air conditioning is important to you, you want to make sure it’s there. And, that’s an easy thing to forget if you’re making that decision in February or March and not thinking about it.”
“Now—reasonable period of time can be a bit arbitrary, and changes on the fact pattern,” he explained. “And certainly, with all of the supply chain interruptions that people are seeing, things aren’t happening as fast as they used to or you’d like them to.” “Well, I suppose it’s possible,” Hamrick said. “The reason that heat is required in any residence and air conditioning is not is it gets cold enough here that you have to have heat for the residence to be habitable… You can't rent somebody a tent. It's illegal in this state. So, I suppose if you get to the point that air conditioning is not so much an amenity but a requirement that could happen; but, it would have bad effects on the cost of housing.
