How can tenants pressure management to fix constant faulty fire alarms in the building?
Dear Sir/Madam,
Constant faulty fire alarms during the night (between 3-6 alarms at a time) in a residential building, and management is not interested in finding a solution to fix or replace sensors.
Is there a way for tenants to pressure management so that our voices are heard?
Thanks!
Dear Questioner,
You can submit a legal notice to the building management, requiring them to maintain the fire alarm within 3 days.

Dear Questioner,
There are several steps you can take as a tenant to put pressure on the management to address the constant faulty fire alarms:
1. Document the issue:
Keep a log of each time the fire alarm goes off and how many times it goes off during the night. This documentation can be useful in showing the frequency and impact of the problem.
2. Contact other tenants:
Talk to other tenants in the building to see if they are also experiencing the same issue. A collective voice from multiple tenants can be more powerful in advocating for change.
3. Contact the local fire department:
If the fire alarms are faulty and not being addressed by management, inform the local fire department of the situation. They may be able to conduct an inspection and require management to fix the issue.
4. Write a formal complaint:
Write a formal complaint to management detailing the problem and requesting that they take action to fix or replace the faulty fire alarms. Keep a copy of the complaint for your records.
5. Consider legal action:
If management continues to ignore the issue despite your efforts to address it, you may want to consider seeking legal action. A lawyer can advise you on your rights as a tenant and potential legal options for resolving the issue.
It's important to advocate for your safety and well-being as a tenant. By taking these steps, you can put pressure on management to address the faulty fire alarms and ensure a safe living environment for all residents.
You, as tenants, should send them a legal warning letter stating that you will file a case to reduce the rent due to your discomfort.
You are paying for comfort in your residence, and they are taking your money to provide that comfort.
