Mine is free. Included in the rent. Why should I pay for the light bulb burning out?

Think about it: assume the previous tenant used the light bulb a lot and moved out. I move in and the very next day, assume, the light bulb goes out. Am I responsible for its “heavy use” and wear and tear? I used it for just one day… Whereas the previous tenant probably used it for more than a full year and still didn’t have to replace it. Likewise with the water filter. Perhaps the building is responsible for changing all these when a new tenant moves in. But will any building replace a working light bulb just because a new tenant is moving in? What about when my lease gets renewed?

Again, I am not saying all buildings need to do this for free. For that matter, many buildings will not even address pest issues and such.

But mine does. And the user above me said that no building does it (for free) and I wanted to point out that my building in JC does it for free. The user above me was asking this as if this is a never-heard-of service and I wanted to say that it is otherwise. For that matter, my not-so-luxury former building in Manhattan also offered water filter and light bulb replacement for free.

Edit: oh, the user above my comment was you, anyways; just saw that
