76 in the Shade

[haptalaon]

If anyone's struggling with the heat, a really good lo-fi hack:

• If it's warmer outside than inside, keep the windows shut


• If it's warmer inside than out, open the windows


• Two windows open forming a 'corridor' where the wind passes through creates the best breeze


• Block all light from coming in. Carboard, sofa cushions, spare curtains, get them all over the windows when the sun shines on them.


• Monitor your house throughout the day to get windows opened/closed/covered at the right times

I'm really satisfied by how well this is going in our home!
