Even if your home doesn’t have air conditioning or power outages, these are simple and common ways to keep your home cooler and more comfortable.
1. Keep the air circulating

An important thing to keep the house cool is to make sure the windows and doors are in positions that allow good air circulation. The best time to open the door to catch the cool breeze is from 5am to 8am and from 8am to 10pm. During this time, the air is considered to be quite fresh and can dispel the heat in your home. If you can ensure anti-theft and health issues, open the living room windows at night to catch the coolest air. You can install insect nets to keep them out of your home. Air conditioning makes the Earth hotter. 2. Use the side door Windows absorb heat, making your home hotter. The solution is to install nets to help prevent heat from entering the house. Please close the net from 11am to 4pm. Materials such as bamboo, jute… are environmentally friendly and also make the house look cooler, avoiding dark or too bright colors. If you must go outside, be sure to close the mesh doors to prevent heat from entering the room. 3. Light tone Leather, silk, satin with pillows, sofas or other furniture… will absorb heat faster. Change to cotton or linen that wicks away sweat and also helps you feel more comfortable. 4. Wall paint color sơn Light paint colors make the house more comfortable. Want to dispel the hot and stuffy feeling of summer, choose a light, gentle and pleasant wall paint color such as: light yellow, pastel pink, beige, white or blue tones. There are even heat-resistant paints on the market today to help keep your home cooler. 5. Ceiling treatment Choosing UV-resistant paint to cover the ceiling is the fastest way to reduce the temperature. This is a paint that is mainly composed of film-forming agents with the ability to insulate and reflect sunlight. This type of paint acts as a coating to help the wall have more durability, resist dust, moisture and make the house cool and comfortable. 6. Trees Coconut palm, aloe vera or fern have the effect of purifying indoor air. In addition to that function, plants also help the house look cooler and more comfortable. Placing potted plants in the east and west of the house will help reduce the heat of the sun. In addition, growing climbing plants on the balcony also helps to keep the house cooler. 7. Electrical equipment Conventional light bulbs do not have the power-saving function and also make the house hotter because of the amount of heat emitted from it. Use bulbs like LED or fluorescent CFL. Don’t forget to turn off the light switch when going out, unplug electronic devices when not in use because they still give off a certain amount of heat.
