You have a poorly written lease. I would rewrite the lease for the next Tenant, placing a cap on heating cost per month and make the Tenant responsible for anything above that. Use can use a previous years monthly average.

Second, I make all my tenants responsible for basic maintenance other than a large system (ie water heater failure). That way I don't get a call for a dripping faucet or burn out light.

I also ad a clause that allows me to enter the unit within 24 hrs of posting a notice on their door for health and safety inspections.

many states prohibit the lease clauses that you suggest. what you may apply in nj does not necessary apply to other states.
