How To Beat The Heat This Summers At Home

How to beat the heat this summer at home? In
summers it becomes very difficult to go out of
the house but it is equally difficult to stay at
home. People use many different ways to avoid
summer heat inside their homes. The heat from the
sun and the hot air makes the home like burning
lava and one can't survive such humid and hot
days without the blessing of the air
conditioners. But the air from the air
conditioner is neither perfect for breathing nor
environment-friendly. So, here is a list of
remedies to beat the summer heat. Growing plants
on the terrace The nature-friendly and cost
effective way to cool home is to grow plants on
the terrace. In summers, cultivating plants and
flowers on the terrace helps to make the home
cooler naturally. The cost effective raw material
to grow plants such as mud acts as an absorber
and insulator towards the direct heat from the
sun to keep the top not heated and hence the
homes remain cool automatically. Cool the roof of
the home The easiest way to cool the roof is to
paint it with a light color. Cool Roofs are
always the best as it reduces the impact of
sunlight on homes. The painted roof remains cool
and reduces the amount of heat entering the
house. Cool roofs can drastically reduce a home's
internal temperature if one doesn't have access
to an air conditioner. Use cotton fabric to cover
beds and sofas Switching on to the light cotton
material for beds and sofas is an easy way to
keep the homes cool without affecting the
interiors of the homes. The smooth texture of the
cotton fabric will give a feeling of coolness as
the light-colored fabric will not absorb the
heat. Avoid using water much during the day
time The temperature of water in the tanks which
are placed on the top of the homes rises during
the daytime. While using water during daytime, it
creates high humidity inside the home. Excess use
of water during the day time in summer leads to
stickier and hotter homes. Avoid heat-generating
activities such as dishwashing, cooking, during
the hot hours of the day in summers. Create
homemade air conditioners The homemade air
conditioner can be easily used to create a
cooling atmosphere in the home by placing a
narrow bowl or container full of ice in front of
the fan. The air flow will pick up the cold water
from the surface of the ice as it melts which
will create a cooling mist. This air conditioner
is meant to keep the room cooler in
summers. UnpLug/ Turnoff unnecessary electronic
devices It is always good to unplug or turn off
the unnecessary electronic devices or lights when
not in use for two important reasons- one to save
energy and the other to avoid heat production.
Everything that is plugged into the socket or
turned on even for a lesser time produces heat
which will increase the temperature inside the
home. So, the appliances should be unplugged and
the lights should
2
be turned off during summers to avoid unnecessary
heat production.
Home Ventilation Home ventilation plays a major
roLe in keeping the air inside the home fresh and
helps in cooling down the room temperature.
Crossventilation is a well-known phenomenon where
opposite windows are kept open to let the air
pass easily and cool the atmosphere. Only the
window which doesn't face the direct sunlight
should be open during the day time for
ventilation. One can reduce the effect of the
boiling sun during summers by using these easy
in-house hacks and prevent themselves as well as
their families from the heat. So, go ahead and
enjoy a pleasing environment while being at home.
