    Too bad this isn’t tech support and it’s the landlords job to show up and troubleshoot it himself. The tenant bears no responsibility here besides informing the landlord there is a problem.

      It’s the tenant that has no hot water though. The more information they give the landlord, the faster they will get hot water again.

      They’re not responsible for fixing the problem, but they are responsible for ensuring that the problem is fixed, since until it’s fixed the don’t have hot water.

      In this case ensuring that the problem is fixed most importantly entails telling the person who has to do the fixing as much about the problem as possible.

      If you need help with something, you have to help your helper if you want it to be effective.
