What does "the apartment has air conditioning" actually promise? A forensic unpacking of every hidden condition between a home's AC unit and actual safety from heat death, following the chain link by link until the sentence can never sound simple again.

Public cooling-center listings compress building age, HVAC condition, filtration capacity, and operating hours into clean directory entries. Nobody has audited what the buildings behind the pins can actually deliver.

Official disaster and heat-relief language promises help in words like "open," "awarded," and "eligible" that obscure the distance between institutional status and human safety.
