Relates to the installation of radiator covers
This bill requires landlords to install safety covers on uncovered radiators exceeding 165°F when a tenant with a child under 12 requests it. Landlords must complete installation within 90 days of a written request. If they fail, tenants may deduct the reasonable installation cost from rent without risk of eviction. The law directly affects residential tenants with young children and landlords in New York, aiming to prevent burns from hot radiators.
