What does “best-heat” mean on Openigloo?

“Best-heat” is a filter that uses Openigloo signals and building-level history to surface buildings with stronger heat-related performance. Treat it as a shortlist signal, not a guarantee for every unit.

How is “near the M7 bus” determined?

The “m7-bus” part of the filter scopes results to buildings located near the M7 corridor in Manhattan. On each building page, double-check the street-level location and your walk route.

Are these buildings required to meet heat standards by law?

Openigloo’s filter is based on available signals and renter-reported information. It does not replace in-person verification. You should still ask the building directly about heating operation and maintenance practices.

What should I ask about heat before I sign a lease?

Ask how heat is controlled for your unit type, how maintenance requests are logged and resolved, when heat is turned on, and what happens if the unit runs hot or not hot enough.

What if my unit has uneven heat compared to the building’s overall rating?

Uneven heating can happen even in well-performing buildings. That’s why it’s important to confirm how heat is distributed in your specific layout and to review tenant Q&A for reports tied to similar units.

Does the “best-heat” filter tell me my heating costs?

Not by itself. Even if heating performance looks good, you should confirm lease terms for what utilities are included and how your monthly cost is calculated.
