Despite the official start of heating in mid-October, many residents in Bucharest remain cold due to associations' decisions to save on maintenance costs. Current legislation states that halting heating is illegal without unanimous consent from all tenants. Even one request for heat mandates that the heating valve remains open. Many buildings are cold due to decisions made by administrators or committees to conserve energy, fearing high bills. The law requires that if heating is available and requested by any resident, it cannot be turned off. Residents can individually adjust their radiators instead of shutting off the heat for everyone. Legal provisions ensure that no tenant can be deprived of heating rights, and any abuse can be reported to local authorities or challenged in court.
