This is the best summary I could come up with:


Justin Cowen has been shivering inside his apartment for almost three weeks, boiling water to wash dishes and heading to the gym when he needs a shower.

Cowen and two other tenants told CBC Toronto the lack of heat is just the latest problem plaguing their quality of life since the new owner purchased the building.

A TSSA inspector visited the building's mechanical room on Dec. 19 and identified several "code non-compliances," spokesperson Alexandra Campbell confirmed in an email to CBC Toronto.

CBC Toronto obtained a copy of the Enbridge document outlining more than 20 safety issues identified on Dec. 19, including an open vent that could cause a carbon monoxide spill.

Bell said the property manager was planning to replace the boilers in summer 2024, but since the gas was shut off, its staff has worked over the holidays to contact more than a dozen technicians.

City of Toronto bylaws require landlords to provide a minimum air temperature of 21 C from Sept. 15 to June 1 and to maintain the supply of vital services, including hot and cold water.


The original article contains 1,368 words, the summary contains 180 words. Saved 87%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
