What responsibilities does a landlord have?

I am currently buying and replacing my tenants air filter. Is it my responsibility to purchase and replace the air filter for my tenants, or are they responsible for that?

Thank you!

I have it in my lease for it to be the tenants responsibility. With that said, I do quarterly inspections and only once did my tenants actually replace the filter by themselves, despite me providing a box of filters. So, even if it’s the tenants responsibility, I recommend being cautious about it.
