No. Even when a building ranks well for heat performance, conditions can differ by unit, exposure, and maintenance at the time. Confirm the exact radiator/thermostat setup and how the building handles temperature complaints.

Use it to keep your search anchored to the 1 line area. After filtering, still compare the distance/time from the building to your usual 1 train stops and consider late-night transit options.

Ask about what’s included in the monthly cost for heating/utilities, how the building responds to temperature issues, and whether there are common seasonal problems (and the fix process) based on recent experience.
