What are the exact rules for NYC Heat Season?
NYC Heat Season runs from October 1 through May 31. During this period, landlords are legally required to provide heat. The specific rules are: between 6 AM and 10 PM, if the outside temperature drops below 55°F, the indoor temperature must be at least 68°F. Between 10 PM and 6 AM, the indoor temperature must be at least 62°F regardless of the outside temperature. Hot water must be provided year-round at a minimum of 120°F. If your apartment fails to meet these thresholds, call 311 to file a complaint — HPD will schedule an inspection and can issue violations with daily fines against the landlord. Document the temperature with a dated photo of a thermometer as evidence.
Who is responsible for repairing a PTAC unit in NYC?
PTAC (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner) units are the through-wall heating and cooling systems common in newer NYC condos, luxury rentals, and hotels converted to residential. Responsibility depends on your lease and building structure. In most cases, the building maintains the metal sleeve (the housing built into the wall) and the electrical connection, while the tenant or unit owner is responsible for repairing or replacing the actual chassis — the removable machine that slides into the sleeve. In some luxury rental buildings, the landlord covers the entire unit. Always check your lease for the specific PTAC maintenance clause before calling a technician.
Do HVAC pros clean and service window AC units?
Yes, and it’s more important in NYC than most places. Window AC units in the city accumulate massive amounts of street exhaust particulates, dust, mold, and — in upper-floor units — pigeon debris and feathers in the exterior housing. Running a dirty unit recirculates all of that directly into your living space, which can trigger allergies and respiratory issues. A professional deep clean involves removing the unit from the window (or servicing in place), cleaning the evaporator and condenser coils, flushing the drain pan and line, replacing or cleaning the filter, and straightening bent fins to restore airflow. The difference in cooling performance and air quality is immediately noticeable.
