Heater has been acting up for almost a month (landlord, property, rooms)

[Jimmyo1]

My question is when is the landlord responsible for keeping a property with heat? Does it go according to the time of year. I live in Philadelphia and the temperature has dropped to the lowest at night around 38 degrees. So because we are about to start the month of April is the landlord responsible for heat at this time?
