In his oral ruling following trial, the trial judge considered appellant’s claims relating to the apartment and gallery separately. As to the apartment, he found that the lack of heat rendered the premises uninhabitable during five months of appellant’s tenancy. Based on this finding, the judge determined that appellant was entitled to a rent abatement totaling $1,125. However, the court also found that appellant had not paid rent for December 1981. Thus, the judge deducted $265 from the rent abatement in awarding recovery of $860 for rent paid on the apartment.
