Repair at the expense of the VVE or the owner?

Questioner

I live in a condominium. The ventilation in the house is too old and a new motor had already been installed. But now it is definitely broken. I wonder who should pay for the replacement costs. The VVE or the owner? I look forward to hearing from you.

Generally, mechanical devices present are exclusively for the service of private areas at the expense and risk of their owner.

Lawyer

To answer the question of whether the ventilation in your apartment is common or private, it is advisable to also check what is stated in the division deed and the applicable division regulations.
