How should I use this page to compare buildings?

Treat the filter as a starting point: open each building, review the heat-related signals, and then check tenant comments and Q&A for patterns around response time, consistency across rooms, and how issues get resolved.

What questions should I ask before signing a lease for heat reliability?

Ask how heat is controlled in the unit, what happens during maintenance or outages, how long requests typically take to address, and how the building documents fixes. If possible, ask about the most recent heating-season experience for units like yours.

Does a “heat rating” guarantee heat will work well in every unit?

No. Heat can vary by unit layout, exposure, and how maintenance is handled in specific cases. Use the rating as guidance, then confirm the details with the building for the exact apartment you’re considering.

Is this filter based on NYC housing court or open-records, and could it lag real conditions?

Open-data signals can lag real-world changes. Use the filter to shortlist, but still contact the building directly and ask for current practices and recent history.
