76 in the Shade

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!
