7. The Tenant cannot, at any time, purchase or have in their possession their own heating devices. Gas heaters
are provided free of charge by Paragon Europe. Tenant is only charged for the gas cylinder as stated in article
2. The gas heater cannot be used in a closed room, as this requires ventilation and circulation of air in the
room.

8. Properties in Malta are built with a porous limestone so ventilation is required in order to avoid formation of
mould and humidity inside the property. Ventilation is also recommended when using gas heaters as this
forms condensation which triggers formation of mould. Drying of wet clothes is not allowed indoors as this
too creates additional humidity and mould. It is scientifically proven that mold in Malta is merely not a health
hazard.

deposit.
