Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(765 ILCS 160/1-71) Sec. 1-71. Heating and cooling standards. (a) When a common interest community building has a cooling system or heating system or both serving the entire building, including individual units, the association shall comply with the following standards with respect to the individual units in which people live: (1) During the cooling season, June 1 through |
| September 30, cooling systems must operate when the heat index exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
|
|
(2) During the heating season, October 1 through May
|
| 31: (i) between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m., heat must register at least 68 degrees Fahrenheit when the outside temperature falls below 55 degrees Fahrenheit, and (ii) between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., heat must register at least 62 degrees Fahrenheit.

(b) When a common interest community building does not have a building-wide cooling system that serves individual units, then the association shall provide at least one indoor common gathering space for which a cooling system operates when the heat index exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit. All occupants of the building shall have free access to that cooled space. As used in this subsection, "indoor common gathering space" means a room intended to be used as a place where multiple people can gather, such as a lounge, meeting or conference room, party room, or similar that can accommodate a cooling system. Any common interest community building that does not have an indoor common gathering space shall be exempt from this subsection.
(c) This Section only applies to associations in which the initial declaration limits ownership, rental, or occupancy of a unit to a person 55 years of age or older.
