If it's really hooked up to a hot water line it is going to cost a lot of money to keep that boiler constantly filled. If he pays for the gas or light, it would be a real shame if you were to pin the flapper up and have it run non stop for a month.

The materials inside the toilet are likely not designed to hold up to that kind of heat either. Chances are the syrofoam ball made into the flapper is melted, which will lead to you breaking the flusher handle. All the other fittings and bits might disintegrate too.

Your toilet wax seal might give way and allow sewer gas to permeate into your bathroom. Actually, this is probably why you have that stink. Your wax ring at the base of the toilet is probably non-existent now, and the toilet could fall over too.

Take him to small claims court. A renter has to fix whatever is broken and if its broken its his responsibility to fix it up. Simply dont pay rent until he fixes it. If he kicks you out take him to small claims court and tell the judge paying 1100 a month to live in an apt with bad condition is not a fair price and that its the renters job to fix it. You don't have to pay rent if the renter makes the place unliveable and does nothing to fix it.

It has been 'running' constantly. That slight noise that toilets make when they're refilling has been ongoing since I've moved it.
I can't reach in to see if the mechanisms are working correctly because the water in the tank is far too hot.
I think you're right about the wax ring being gone and causing the stink, because there have been times that I have gone multiple days without using the toilet and my whole place still smells like shit.

You're right, so it must have started happening recently. Somebody earlier mentioned the wax seal and how it probably is completely gone by now.

That hydrogen sulfide poisoning isn't a lie. You are also potentially, though it's an extreme case, at risk of a sewer gas backup into that apartment / building leading to an explosion of shit gas due to excessive methane buildup though this is highly highly unlikely comicly so even. This is actually a serious issue anon and it's costing you a fuck ton of utility bills and is also an incredible danger to your helth. This is something that you can stop paying rent for and force the landlord to fix record all of your interactions with this landlord audio especially video if possible. If the landlord doesn't want to fix this then you do not have to pay rent anymore if he is not willing to make the renter repairs that he is legally obligated to make sure every States renter laws.

t. I'm an aspiring slumlord myself and I'm currently in the process of renting out my first property. You can buy a decent audio recorder on Amazon for about 30 bucks you need to record all of your interactions with this landlord both on the phone and in person it is absolutely Paramount.
