You can have the heat repaired and deduct it from your rent.Get a receipt from the repairman and keep a copy for yourself. Mr Bill

If it were me and during this time of the year, no I wouldn't. If I payed rent at all it would be how mr. Bill said.
-
no way, you took on the property with heating so if they arnt giving you any, then your not getting what you paid for!
-
Yes as you have a legal contract to do so. Unless your contract specifically says "repairs must be done by x days" you are at their mercy. However, this does not mean you should not be contacting the landlord or his agency everyday until you get a date for the repair to be done. Don't be stupid getting it repaired yourself, as then you will be liable for the damage and the cost as well as breach of contract.
