Summer offers many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, but when temperatures rise without control, the interior of the home can become a true oven, especially If there is no air conditioning or a fan. This is where this practical and easy to apply method comes into play.
Only a 1.5 -liter plastic bottle, water and a freezer is needed. Fill the bottle (without reaching the top to avoid breaking when freezing), place it in the freezer during the night and, the next day, place it in a high position inside the room –Like a high shelf or closet– On a container to collect condensation. As the ice melt, the colder air is released that helps lower the temperature of the environment. In small spaces, the difference can feel quite fast.
Although this trick can provide temporary relief, its effect is limited. Cooling only hard while ice melts and is not distributed uniformly throughout the room.
Additional tips to keep the home fresh
In addition to the bottle trick, there are other useful strategies. For example, hanging wet towels in the center of the room helps reduce environmental heat through evaporation. It is also recommended keep the windows closed during the day and open them at night to allow the entry of fresher air.
Plants located in the windows They can also offer natural isolation against heat, and the use of curtains or blinds during the hottest hours of the day helps prevent the interior of the interior.
