mabziegurl | Is it legal for my landlord to not allow air conditioning units? |
my neighbors had air conditioining units installed in their window... so i assumed they were okay.. my apartment is really stuffy and still (no air flow), but it was 100+ for a week or so, i finally gave in... i bought one... three days later, my landlord called and said that she doesnt allow them because they cause mold and moisture, and to please take it out. She called while I was sleeping and so I really didn't argue or think about it. I removed it, but i looked at my lease, it doesn't say anything. Should I fight it, or let it go? I moved down here from cold weather so the heat really takes a toll on me. Is it even legal since I'm paying electricity and the unit? |

I think this is totally unreasonable of your landlord, and you should dispute it. If there is nothing in the lease, and you're paying for the electricity, you should be able to use a window unit. In fact, it should DECREASE the moisture and mold in your apartment, because it works by condensing moisture from the air. I wonder if your landlord would have taken this position if you were elderly or ill. |

Look in your lease. If a/c units are not allowed, it would be specified in your lease.
If it is not prohibited in your lease, your landlord doesn't have a leg to stand on unless the a/c has been improperly installed, etc which is easily corrected.
As a rule of thumb, 115v a/c units with less than a 9,000 BTU capacity will not overload average house wiring. If you have very old wiring and some sort of super-jumbo a/c, your landlord will probably be able to force you to downsize your a/c because of safety issues.
If she files a complaint or gives you a notice, you should be able to easily defend. |

Here is laws in your state for tenants http://www.uslandlord.com/ they also have legal resources and much more.
Just go to Laws & Statutes and then your state. |

If it is properly installed she can't say anything about an air conditioning unit. Talk to your local landlord/tenant relations bureau. |

Tell ur landlord to stick it where the sun doesn't shine, he has no legal right to say u can't have one, especially if it's not mentioned in the lease. |

Have her put everything in writing. If she calls again, say "Can you put that in writing for me please."
You want to DOCUMENT what is going on, and words get lost sometimes, if you know what I mean.
Write her too. Ask permission to put up the A/C, take photos of the units that already have similar and say, in your written note, "I see other units with this, are you discriminating?"
If you get an eviction notice, go to court and fight it. Tell them that you are being singled out. See you on JUDGE JUDY! |

Go and see her and ask her if it would be ok if you install an ac unit because of health issues. If she refuses ask for the name of her boss and the contact info. That should work! |

no it is not illegal most landlords don't want window unites because they have central air the window makes the property look bad maybe next time ask first and the landlord will probably give you the ok its also has a thing with the authority to say no |
