What does “best-heat” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building-level signal based on Openigloo’s collected renter feedback and related building page information, focused on how reliably heat works in practice.

How does the M79-SBS bus filter work?

It narrows results to buildings in Manhattan that are near the M79-SBS bus route, so your commute stays in range while you shop for heat-reliable buildings.

Are these heat ratings a guarantee for a specific apartment?

No. Ratings reflect building-level patterns, but actual comfort can vary by unit, floor, exposure, and the building’s maintenance at the time of your lease.

What should I ask the building before signing?

Ask about heat controls for your unit, seasonal maintenance procedures, typical response times for heat-related complaints, and whether utilities are included or billed separately.

Where do the signals and Q&A come from?

Openigloo surfaces tenant-driven signals (ratings and building Q&A) along with building page details to help you compare buildings more consistently.
