Natural Cooling Methods For The Home
This can make sleeping difficult on a stuffy night, forcing you to put a fan on, but that costs money. Not quite as much if you place your fan in close proximity to a window at bedtime as it will circulate the cooler air from outdoors around your bedroom area.
For natural sources of ventilation that won’t eat into your finances or consume high volumes of energy, employ the trio of strategies proposed by Amber.
Magnify window operation
Homes are designed to retain heat and the role of windows is to aid with that and also cool them down as and when required.
To create a cross-breeze in a house and enjoy a rich amount of cool airflow, open windows facing opposite each other in the house. Early mornings and late evenings are when this will have maximum impact as that’s when temperatures are at their coolest.
Implementation of modern energy efficient windows will similarly stimulate natural ventilation and diminish the indoor temperature. Once they’re in, fit light curtains or blinds to fend off overabundant heat.
Modify cooking habits
The warmth that comes out of a hot oven can be extreme, addedly so when you use it to cook food at lunchtimes, the time of day when outdoor temperatures are at their peak.
So that you’re not left in a sweaty state on your lunch breaks, keep the oven off and prepare salads and sandwiches.
If oven use is a must, try and do it early in the morning or as late as you can at night. An air fryer could be employed as an alternative as it doesn’t let out as much heat as an oven.
Entice airflow with bi-folds
Bi-folding doors have an inventive mechanism giving you the ability to almost completely open their design for utmost ventilation.
Where they sit in your house is critical if they’re to offer sufficient airflow and we advocate them being installed opposite a shaded garden or in an area to collect a good breeze.
Dependency on artificial ventilation will be less frequent if you keep using bi-folds during the coolest periods. We’ll locate a positioning for them where they will best capitalise on external air whenever ajar.
Fans and air conditioning will be surplus to requirements for the most part if you abide by Amber’s recommendations. Arrange for a quote to be delivered to you if you want energy efficient windows or bi-folds arranged.
