    You can ASK, but since you reported him he will be unlikely to give you anything...especially as you seem quite over entitled.

Of course not. You DID live there, did you not ? So you expect free rents because you had an issue with the heat ? Sorry, but that is not the way it works.

No; you should have called the moment your heat when out. Then you would have been excused from paying rent until the proper fix was made. As it stands, you are not entitled to any refund or reduction in rent. You lived in the unit, you didn't call until a month after the fact, and your landlord did make the repair immediately after you took the proper steps. Nothing you can do after the fact.

Nope.

You can try. did the landlord provide the electric heaters or did you purchase them yourself? If the landlord provided them, and the cost to operate them wasn't more than you would normally pay, you may have a hard time getting a reimbursement.
