How to cool down indoors

In summer, we will feel very stuffy when staying in the house. At this time, we will think of various ways to lower the temperature. The first choice is definitely to open the window or turn on the fan or air conditioner, but in fact there are some methods that we don’t know that can also lower the room temperature, such as cooling the wall, that is, pouring water on the wall, etc., and wetting the quilt, and opening the window carefully, and closing the doors and windows when no one is in the room. The specific operations are as follows:

1. In hot weather, the temperature of the walls of the room will not drop for a long time even after the sun goes down. These walls slowly release heat into the room, causing the room to be stuffy. Therefore, cooling the walls will indirectly cool the room. If conditions permit, you can pour water on the wall. After the wall is fully watered, water it again after an interval of 20 minutes. You can water it repeatedly depending on the situation. When watering, open doors and windows for ventilation.

2. If you have various thick fabrics such as old quilts at home, if it is easy to use and no one often goes in and out of the house during the day, you can soak these fabrics in water, and then cover the four sides of the room with the quilts. This will greatly reduce the heat from the sun. If you have time, you can water the quilt once or twice at noon when the sun is at its hottest, so that the cooling effect will be better.

To quickly cool down the room, you can sprinkle water on the ground, spray water on the walls, or place a large area of ​​thick materials such as water-soaked quilts or sponges in the room. If the room is relatively spacious and you do not need to worry about whether the items inside the room are wet or dry, you can spray the indoor air with a large amount of clean water. When adding water to cool down the room, open the doors and windows for ventilation.

3. If no one is at home during the day, close the doors and windows before leaving home to prevent heat waves from rushing into the room. In addition, you can also place some basins or buckets filled with water in the middle and corners of the room to prevent the indoor temperature from rising too quickly, and then turn on the ventilation when you return home in the evening.

When the sun is scorching and there are people moving around in the room, if you have a refrigerator at home (you can also buy one from a refrigeration factory), you can put some ice cubes in the middle and around the room to cool it down. To speed up the cooling, you can also put ice cubes in front of an electric fan and blow hard. If there are no ice cubes, you can put cold water in front of an electric fan and blow it vigorously. The mouth of the container for cold water should be large and contain a lot of water.

4. Put a few pots of plants at home. As the saying goes, "Be surrounded by green shade", many people in the countryside take shelter under the trees in the summer. Having a few more pots of plants at home can absorb the heat in the air and give you a cool feeling from the bottom of your heart. For example: Weeping Guanyin, Green Bamboo Scented Grass, etc. are all good.
