Hi there, time to share ways to keep your home cool during hot times

So ok, usual ways I use:

  • open everything during night
  • close everything during day
  • external sheets on windows without shutters
  • some curtains to prevent heat from going upstairs

I was also wondering if plants could also help inside, any ideas ?

Share your advices !

    Upvoting for visibility, but this seems insane and impossible to me. When I take a cold shower, I can feel the water stealing the heat from my back, because it’s warmer when it hits my legs. It’s crazy.

    It’s definitely taking heat away, for me, and I would die if I tried to take a hot shower on a hot day.

    I start with a warm shower, like normal, then slowly turn it down until it’s nice and cool, almost cold. But not ice cold. Feel way better afterwards.
