Generally yes. The Ohio Landlord Tenant Act sets certain basic minimum standards for safety and livability of rented property. You can point this out to your landlord in discussions about a fix. If your landlord still does not remedy the problem, you might consider bringing this to the attention of your local building code enforcement officer.
