1. Use curtains during the day<\/b><\/h3>\n

Some also install blackout curtains on windows and doors.<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to stop the sun from entering the house during the day and to keep the house cool at night, the curtains should be drawn from 11 am to 4 pm when the sun is shining outside. It will not allow the harsh sun from outside to enter the house. As a result, the room will be cold.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If the room gets dark after installing curtains on the windows and doors to keep the room cool from the heat of the sun, then naturally the lights in the room should be turned on as needed. But the opposite can also happen. Keeping bright lights on in the house can increase the heat. Therefore, if it is not necessary at this time, strong light should not be lit in the room.

5. Use cotton sheets on the bed\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

6. Keep doors and windows open in the morning and evening<\/b><\/h3>\n

Due to the use of curtains on the windows and doors during the day, light and air cannot enter the room but you can bring relaxation in this case at two times of the day. You can open the doors and windows in the morning and after the evening when the sun is not hot.<\/span><\/p>\n

The best time to keep windows open is from 5 am to 8 am and from evening to 10 pm. During this time the air is cool and the amount of dust in the air is also very less. Moreover, the temperature is also lower during this time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
