What does “best-heat” mean on this buildings page?

It’s a heat-performance filter based on building-level signals and renter feedback captured by Openigloo. Use it to focus on buildings that tend to keep units warmer, but still confirm specifics for the exact apartment.

How does the “2-train” filter work?

It limits results to buildings near the 2 train corridor, so you can prioritize commute convenience while still screening for heat.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

835+ buildings match the 2-train + best-heat combination in Openigloo’s current dataset.

Does a high heat score guarantee every unit will be warm?

No. Heat can vary by floor plan, exposure, and local radiator/thermostat setup. Treat the heat rating as a starting signal and confirm conditions for your targeted unit.

What should I ask before signing a lease for heating reliability?

Ask about thermostat control, radiator/HVAC type, maintenance response for heat complaints, any history of heating problems, and whether there are seasonal adjustments or known constraints in certain units.

Are there utility or cost considerations beyond the heating score?

Yes. If your lease requires tenant-paid utilities, the total monthly cost can depend on how your unit is heated and your building’s utility setup. Confirm your responsibilities in writing.

Where does Openigloo’s heat information come from?

Openigloo combines building-level review signals, open-data indicators where available, and tenant Q&A. Use this to compare buildings, then verify heating details directly with the landlord or property manager for the specific apartment.
