A mini-instruction on how to survive in tough heat, if your air conditioner requires expensive repairs, or it simply does not exist.
Finally, the summer remembered its obligations and bestowed its warmth to its full potential. The streets melt away from the scorching heat, but you can’t even dream of a life-giving breeze. Especially you will not envy those who have a labor shift or simply do not have the opportunity to get out into the countryside.
But comfort and coolness can be created artificially, following a couple of simple tips!
Curtains and blinds keep closed
The Council is as old as the world, but not all believe and adhere to it. And it works! Surprise, but the windows of our apartments let in 30% of the heat. Close them tightly and immediately become much cooler. Especially the recommendation will save from the heat of the room, whose windows face the sunny side.
The ceiling fan is in summer mode
Not many people know, but the ceiling cooling system has two modes for warm and cold seasons. So, when the mechanism rotates counterclockwise, the fan gives the desired coolness. The reverse movement of the blades provides the circulation of warm air, which is necessary in winter jelly.
Cool a person, not a room
It is not enough just to cool the room - we will still not be comfortable. Our ancestors also knew that cool, plentiful drink and dampened tissue at the wrists and head give coolness no worse than split systems and fans.
The hood in the kitchen and in the bathroom is turned on at full power
This recommendation is vital if you are busy in the kitchen or taking a hot bath. Hoods will take care of getting rid of warm air and steam, which will significantly reduce the degree in the room.
At night, all the windows wide open
Even a schoolchildren knows that by the evening it becomes significantly cooler. Sometimes the temperature in the apartment and on the street can vary by tens of degrees. Do not miss the chance to nourish your home with cool air, and before dawn, apply in combination with the first tip.
Do not keep electrical appliances turned on unnecessarily.
Have you tried holding a hot bulb in your hands? And do not, just believe that it is not just warm, but boiling water! And any electric device or light that you forgot to turn off, not only increases your utility costs, but also heats the apartment! Energy-saving sources do not apply here, which cannot be said about electrical appliances.
Get ready for the heat in advance
If summer hell is a habit for you, get ready in advance. It is not necessary to install an air conditioning system on every corner, but you still have to spend on reflective films or a fan.
