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

It’s a filter that ranks eligible Manhattan buildings using heat-related signals from Openigloo’s renter-supplied data and open-data indicators. The goal is to surface buildings with stronger heat performance signals, not to guarantee how any single unit will behave.

How does the Q102 bus filter work?

It limits the results to buildings in Manhattan near the Q102 route, so you spend less time sorting through areas that are farther from your commute needs.

Do these heat ratings guarantee the apartment will be warm enough?

No. Heat performance can vary by unit layout, exposure, and how quickly maintenance is scheduled. Use the “best-heat” score as a starting point, then ask the building management about your specific unit and how issues are handled.

What should I ask about heat before signing?

Ask about maintenance response for heat complaints, any common seasonal issues, thermostat or radiator/radiator-valve setup, and whether utilities are included. If there’s a history of problems, ask what changes were made to address them.

Are there any costs I should double-check beyond the heat score?

Yes. Confirm the full monthly cost structure, including any utility responsibilities, deposits, and any building or application fees. A unit can have strong heat signals but still cost more once all charges are included.

Where do the heat signals come from?

Openigloo combines tenant-reported experiences (via ratings and Q&A) with open-data signals relevant to building conditions. Availability and details can change, so confirm current practices with the building.
