Barbro Englund, a resident of Luleå, has been struggling with uncomfortably cold temperatures in her apartment throughout the winter, according to reports from Swedish public broadcasters. Measurements taken in her living room show temperatures fluctuating between 16 and 18 degrees Celsius, well below what many consider comfortable indoor conditions. " The Hyresgästföreningen (Tenants' Association) confirms that Englund is not alone in experiencing these cold apartment conditions, though what constitutes an acceptable indoor temperature remains a question.
The landlord, Lulebo, has attempted some repairs during the winter, including sealing balcony and exterior doors, but acknowledges that fundamental problems with cold and drafts persist. Pär Nordberg, head of property management at Lulebo, stated in an email that they plan to carry out necessary sealing work as soon as weather permits, noting that extended periods of cold outdoor temperatures can particularly affect older buildings.
