What should I do if the room is stuffy and unventilated?

In the hot summer, many people will experience the feeling of stuffiness in the room. Especially in rainy weather, the stuffiness in the room will be very strong, which will greatly affect normal life. It will also easily affect the air quality. There are many ways to improve the stuffiness and lack of ventilation in the room. You can open the doors and windows, or use breathable curtains. You can also sprinkle water in the room at ordinary times.

1. Open and close the door repeatedly

If the room is too hot in the summer, open the doors and windows in the room when you get home, and then quickly open and close the door several times. This can help circulate the stuffy air in the room and help cool down the room quickly.

2. Replace with sun-proof curtains

When the weather is hot in the summer, you can consider replacing the sun-proof curtains to effectively isolate the strong ultraviolet rays to prevent the room from being heated up. Then you can open the windows for ventilation when you go out. This type of curtain can effectively resist heat. White curtains or blinds can block 40-50% of the heat from the sun; although thick curtains or bamboo curtains will affect the line of sight, they can block 60-80% of the heat. The most important thing is that after installing curtains, the dimmed light in the room will psychologically feel lower than the actual temperature.

3. Keep your room clean

If the room temperature is high in summer, you can keep the room clean and empty to reduce heat accumulation. Clean up the clutter in the room and keep it clean and tidy. If the room is more spacious, it can reduce heat accumulation and help cool down.

If the room is hot in the summer, you can use a humidifier to cool it down. Using a humidifier can increase the moisture content in the air and make the air moist. If you don’t have a humidifier, you can also use a basin of cold water and blow it towards a fan, or mop the floor with cold water, which can also have a certain effect.

5. Use fans and water evaporation

If you don't have air conditioning and want to cool down the room quickly, you can make your own air conditioner, that is, use fans and water evaporation to cool the room.

Method: Take a basin of cold water, or add ice cubes in it, and then blow the fan towards the cold water, allowing the wind to pass through the cold water first and then blow out, which can have a cooling effect. Alternatively, you can wipe the floor with a wet mop and turn on the ceiling fan to evaporate the moisture on the floor and absorb heat.

If you want to cool down the room quickly without air conditioning, you can pour a proper amount of water on the ground to help speed up the dissipation of heat. If there is a floor indoors or the situation is not suitable for splashing water, you can soak a towel in cold water, wring it out and wipe it to effectively cool down.

7. Wear cool-toned items

If the room is hot in the summer, you can replace the room items with cool-toned home furnishings to help cool it down. Cool colors can easily calm people down, and refreshing colors can also make people feel refreshed.
