Adopting the right reactions from the start of the day are the basics to prevent your home from turning into an oven. During the day, remember to close all windows and protect skylights to avoid the effect of magnification. However, from 9pm, reopen them all until the next morning. This will create drafts for updating the entire apartment, which will give you some relief.

You can also speed up the process of cooling rooms by hanging a wet sheet in front of the half-opened window and spraying it with water when it begins to dry. In absolute numbers, remember that during these hot periods, humidity is your ally.

Put a frozen bottle in front of a fan
Unfortunately, the fan alone does not cool the room, it simply ferments the hot air and does not relieve the feeling of heat, although it has the benefit of facilitating air circulation. On the other hand, if you place a frozen water bottle directly in front of it, the air will be less clogged because the fan will spread the freshness of the bottle throughout the room.

If you don't have shutters on your windows or want maximum sun protection, you can quickly and easily design light reflectors. All you need to do is stick aluminum foil to the cardboard banners the size of your windows, and secure them. These reflectors will reflect light, preventing heat from entering your home.

During a heat wave, plants are a great fortress against the heat. In fact, they are exposed to the phenomenon of evaporation, which consists in the transfer of water contained in the soil to the atmosphere by transpiration. It is this phenomenon that makes the atmosphere of the house more breathable in the presence of plants on or near the outer walls. If you're not anticipating a heat wave by installing a climbing plant, stick with potted plants on your patio or porch, and they'll also lower the temperature in your home.
