Mulberry, AR – Hot Out? Here’s How This HVAC Pro Cools Down a Room Naturally

The temps are rising and it’s time to start cooling the inside of your house. How can you cool down a room and get a little relief from the heat? Running the A/C is the most obvious way to drastically cool down a room but is sometimes too expensive to operate or otherwise unavailable. If you need strategies to cool down a room without an air conditioner, keep reading to find out foolproof ideas to beat the heat.
 

Turn on the Fan

Several different fans can help cool down a room without an air conditioner. Whole room fans, box fans, ceiling fans, and rotating fans are among the options.

Always turn on the ceiling fan in a room for refreshing, cool comfort.  The air from the ceiling fan can reduce room temperatures by 6 to 8 degrees. Be sure the blades on the ceiling fan turn counterclockwise to keep the cool air flowing.

Box fans circulate more air when placed inside a screened window. This is possible because the fan pulls out the heat from a room.
 

Invest in Cotton Sheets

No bedding material provides the same comfort and benefits as cotton. If you sleep on sheets made of any other material, it’s time to toss them out and invest in cotton sheets. They keep you cooler at night, reduce body heat and sweating, and they’re so comfortable. Don’t worry about designs because cotton sheets come in all the fun colors and styles and other sheets.
 

Cover the Windows

Keep the blinds down during the day when the sun is out. The heat from the sun can make a room unbearably hot in a matter of a few minutes. The risk of unbearable heat affecting you is reduced when you cover the windows. Open the blinds at night (if you feel comfortable doing so) to cool down the room.
