Heat season started in NYC for apartments from coop to condo and all types of tenants

The period between October 1 and May 31 is Heat Season. During this time, the City requires building owners to provide tenants with heat according to the following rules: Between 6 AM and 10 PM, if the outside temperature falls below 55 degrees, the inside temperature must be at least 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Between 10 PM and 6 AM, the inside temperature must be at least 62 degrees Fahrenheit at all times. There is no outside temperature requirement. Hot water must be provided 365 days per year at a constant minimum temperature of 120 degrees Fahrenheit. For lack of heat, call 311 to report a complaint. This includes Glen Oaks Village Co-op.
