Hallo zusammen,

Direkt hinter der Heizung befinden sich grünliche Flecken. Dort ist es feucht, weil das Fenster undicht ist.

1) Ist das Schimmel? 2) Wie gefährlich ist es? Können Sie noch im selben Zimmer schlafen? 3) Der Hausverwalter ist zahlungsunfähig, weshalb derzeit alles sehr lange dauert. Was kann ich selbst tun, um die Lücke zu schließen? Die Heizung funktioniert übrigens nicht.

Vielen Dank!

    1. Yes, or at least its “Stock”, next step mold
    2. You should not sleep in that room. That is just the start. Look behind closet etc.
    3. if it was moist over a long time, it wont be easy. Google for “Stoßlüften”, heat up the air a lot more, warmer air can hold more moisture.

    But please, check of your matrasse is moldy aswell

    It is mold ! You should not sleep there.  

    If the heating is not working at all, you can lower the rent (after informing your landlord about the issue and giving them a time to fix it) .

    Are you in a “Mieterschutzverein”, if not ,go there .
    They will help you with the legal issues that might be coming.

    You need to get the heating to work to stop more mold from growing.

    Have you googled how to bleed a radiator? And sometimes the thermostat is stuck and just needs to be removed, a drop of oil added and screwed back on. These are two very simple things that you can do yourself to try and get that radiator to work.

    Treat the mold with special Schimmelentferner from the Baumarkt (about 10 Euros). Environmentally friendly ones contain hydrogen peroxide, but they don’t work as well as those containing chlorine bleach.

    Some people will tell you to use vinegar. But only some types of mold are killed by vinegar and the spores always survive. Bleach kills the spores.
