California Minimum temperature for habitability?

I have the same problem. Landlord lives in the same house and wants heater off. It was 52 degrees. I turned it on and she turns it right off. Says she can’t afford it. My rent includes utilities. I rent a room.

I have the same issue. My rent includes the utilities. The landlord, not owner, screams if “his” thermostat is touched. One time we put on the A/C because it was 85 degrees IN the house and he said, “You know, I’m going to charge you if you touch the A/C one more time,” I have a cat and I live in the hottest part of the house. So the 85 degrees in the rest of the house is 95 in my room. It’s unbearable.

A landlord in California CANNOT deny a tenant heat, as per California Housing Law. Additionally, California Civil Code, Article 5, Section 34a states that all rental units and guest rooms must be kept at a minimum of 70 degrees fahrenheit.
