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

It’s a building-level signal used by Openigloo to surface buildings that tend to perform better on heat-related outcomes. You should still verify details directly with the building for the specific apartment and lease terms.

How does the “S train” part of the filter work here?

The page limits results to buildings in Crown Heights that match the S-train transit filter, so your search is anchored around that line and nearby access.

Are these ratings based on tenant reviews?

They reflect building-level scores calculated from rated buildings. Use the ratings as a starting point, then review the underlying notes and ask questions about heat management for the unit you want.

What should I ask the super or leasing office before applying for a heat-focused building?

Ask how heating is controlled (thermostats vs. centralized settings), what happens if heat is inconsistent, expected response timelines for repairs, and whether there are any apartment-specific factors that change heat performance.

Does a heat-focused building guarantee comfortable temperatures year-round?

No. Building signals and ratings can’t replace a unit-specific check. Ask about how the apartment’s exposure (floor, orientation) affects heat, and confirm how maintenance issues are handled during the coldest periods.

Is the “best-heat” filter the same as rent regulation or tenant protections like good cause?

No. This filter is focused on heat-related performance signals, not on regulatory status. If you need rent regulation or tenant-protection categories, use those filters separately.
