Dear Mr Smith, First of all, I want to thank you for the repairs you have arranged. Now my apartment looks much better than before, but, unfortunately, I have encountered a new defect. The problem is with the water heating system. It seems that it does not heat water in the boiler. I suggest it can be because of the malfunctioning power switch, as the light does not glow red when I try to turn the machine on. Or, maybe, the issue is within the electrical system itself. I believe
this
needs to be fixed as soon as possible because I find it hard to live without hot water. Can you, please, arrange an electrician for the nearest weekend? I will be able to meet him from 12 to 6 PM both on Saturday and Sunday. I will be waiting for your response and I’m looking forward to finding a viable solution to our problem in the nearest future. Sincerely, Nikita
