Hi community.
Around a week ago I’ve noticed sharp drop in temperature at home – it felt below 18 degrees.
I’ve notified maintenance company. Maintenance guy checked radiators and said they’re working fine but it didn’t help.
Next day temperature dropped to 17.
Week passed and now it’s 15. Maintenance company says that they can’t do anything. Insurance company says that I should call to maintenance company.
I have 3 y.o. kid and don’t understand what the hell is going on and what should I do so any advice is appreciated.

I guess you could check your windows next? Perhaps the summer ventilation switch is open, or they need new sealing caulk (or whatever they use, I am no expert, but my guess is insulation is the issue here!)?
If the radiators are cold, maintenance should fix the issue. If the building is just leaking heat, it’s way harder to fix.
What kind of an apartment and building do you live in? Do you own the apartment or are you renting? If renting, is the landlord a private person or a company? If you are renting, contact your landlord. If you own the apartment, contact the property manager (isännöitsijä).
Note also that the temperature shall be measured at the middle of the room at 1 height with a calibrated thermometer. Close to walls or windows there might be colder spots and that is acceptable.
