What does “best-heat” mean on Openigloo?

“Best-heat” is an Openigloo filter that groups buildings with stronger heat-related performance signals. Use it as a starting point, then confirm specifics with the building directly for your exact unit.

How should I use the M104-bus part of this page?

The M104-bus match narrows the building set to those near the route. It’s location-focused, so still compare building details like heating setup, maintenance responsiveness, and your unit’s exposure.

Are these buildings guaranteed to have good heat?

No. Even with strong filter signals, heat can vary by unit, season, and maintenance history. Treat the filter as guidance and confirm the current heating process with the superintendent or management office.

What should I ask about heat before signing a lease?

Ask how maintenance requests are handled for heat and hot water, how quickly the building responds, who you contact after hours, and whether they provide written documentation for service and follow-ups.

Does “highly rated for heat” come from tenant reviews?

It’s based on Openigloo’s heat-related ratings and signals, which are informed by renter feedback and structured building data. Read the relevant review notes and look for patterns across multiple entries.

What if heat issues happen—does my lease matter?

Yes. Review the lease for maintenance obligations, entry notice rules, and any stated remedies or escalation steps if heating requirements aren’t met. Ask the office to point to the exact clauses.

What to check before choosing a building highly rated for heat near the M104 bus in Manhattan

Start by shortlisting buildings that match both filters: best-heat plus an M104-bus area match, then compare how consistently heat ratings show up over time.
Before applying, ask for the most recent heat/thermostat history: how quickly issues are addressed, and whether they document service calls.
Confirm how units are heated (radiators, boiler, or other systems) and what controls you get, since “heat quality” can vary by exposure and layout.
Ask whether there are any billing or metering details tied to heating and hot water, and confirm utility responsibility in writing.
Check lease terms for maintenance/entry procedures and what happens if heat falls below required levels, including escalation steps and timelines.
