What does the “best water pressure” filter mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building-level signal based on available data and tenant feedback patterns that indicate stronger, more consistent water flow. You should still test water pressure in the specific unit you’re considering.

Does being “near the B15 bus” guarantee anything about the building’s plumbing?

No. The B15 portion is about location convenience, not plumbing. The water-pressure expectation comes from the separate “best water pressure” signal.

Why do water pressure ratings sometimes differ by unit or floor?

Pressure can vary within a building based on plumbing layout, floor height, and recent maintenance. Even within the same building, one unit may feel better than another, so a quick in-unit test matters.

What should I ask during a tour to verify water pressure?

Ask if pressure is typically strong during mornings/evenings, whether any recent plumbing work could affect performance, and whether there are known problem units. Then test both hot and cold flow (sink + shower).

Are the Openigloo signals enough to decide without contacting the building?

No. Use the filter to narrow the search, then confirm directly with the building. Tenant reports can flag patterns, but the leasing office and superintendent can confirm what applies to your unit.

Does strong water pressure affect fees, lease terms, or utility costs?

Not automatically. But when comparing options, review the full move-in and monthly picture (deposit, building fees, and utilities) so you’re not paying more elsewhere for the same unit you wanted for pressure.
