Broken Window
Our window has been broken for quite a while. Over a month. I've talked to the landlord about it 2 times and the super about it 2 times. The parts were ordered... blah blah blah. Yet, the stupid thing is still falling open and cold air is welcoming it's way right in. We had it rigged to stay closed... a string holding it shut from the top and pieces of cardboard shoved in the sides. It wasn't enough today. The thing keeps falling open with the wind gusts... falling almost on our TV. When I called the super (the 5th phone call I've made at this point), he actually answered. He said, O I just got the pieces and I should be around this... (week... not soon enough) I cut him off and told him it needed to be fixed today. What are we supposed to do? The window isn't staying closed... wouldn't be a big deal if it were summer... but it's 45 degrees out, and I'm not going to just leave my window hanging open. You'd think we paid nothing for rent for the quality of service we get around here. We wish we paid nothing.

in the meantime, use foam. i've used that on our basement window in the past and it tends to stay in place with some tape. and then use the cold protecting window cling things. not sure what they're called, but they help keep the cold air out. though i think where your window is broken, it may be too much to handle. i hope your window gets fixed soon!!! either way, those cling things do help keep cold air out and make you use less heat!
