When is the heating turned on in YH Kodit apartments?
Topic: Naapurin puolesta kyselen

As autumn temperatures begin to drop, it’s a sign that the heating season is approaching. For our property management team, this means careful preparation to keep buildings warm and energy-efficient. At the beginning of the season, we closely monitor the average daily temperature. Once it falls below 13°C, heating is switched on. All buildings are heated within a few days.
At YH Kodit, the target indoor temperature is 20°C. In addition to outside temperatures, we also closely monitor the average indoor temperatures in the apartments.
“At the start of the heating season, the typical indoor temperatures of autumn and winter may feel chilly after the warmth of summer. The human body is a sensitive sensor—it can detect even a half-degree difference. That’s why, during the first cool days of autumn, people are more likely to notice cooler spots in their homes. A target temperature of 20°C is ideal for healthy living conditions. The temperature should not drop below 18°C."
Heating Season Checklist
When the heating season begins, remember to:
- Set the air vents to winter mode. These are typically located above window frames or on exterior walls.
- Do not block the air vents.
- Check the condition of radiator thermostats by turning them fully open and closed once.
- Inspect windows and balcony doors for drafts, and make sure they’re properly closed.
- Keep the area in front of radiators clear of thick curtains and heavy furniture so heat can circulate effectively.
- Note that radiators may feel cool at the beginning of the heating season—even if the heating is already on.
If you have any concerns, don’t hesitate to contact YH Kodit’s customer service—we’re happy to help!

Mitä tehdä, jos asunnossa sattuu vahinko?
Huolellisesta asumisesta huolimatta kotona voi silti sattua vahinkoja. Jos kodissasi tapahtuu esimerkiksi vesi-, tulipalo- tai muunlainen vahinko, on tärkeää ilmoittaa siitä välittömästi huoltoyhtiölle. Muista tehdä ilmoitus myös YH Kodeille sekä omalle kotivakuutusyhtiöllesi.
