Staying cool in the summertime can seem like an uphill battle if you live in climates that have oppressive heat or humidity. With the rising costs of energy bills, no one can afford to leave the AC running around the clock, so how do you keep from melting when those triple digits of July come creeping in through your front door? Here are some of the most tried and true methods of keeping your house cool even when the weather is sweltering outside. - Use ceiling fans throughout your entire house. One of the nice things about ceiling fans is that they keep the air in your home circulating constantly. When you have circulating air in your home, it can make the temperature in your home seem like its cooler, even if it isn’t.
- Keep your house locked up tight during the hot days, and then, if you live in a climate that gets cooler at night, open your windows and let in the cool night air. Don’t let any of your hard earned money slip out of the door during the day by trying to cool down the outdoors. If your house has a problem with leaking out copious amounts of air, have a professional come out and look at it.
- Check the AC. If you can find an AC with a thermostat, buy it! Having a thermostat can help you save on your cooling bills by eliminating the start/stop process of cooling down your home. Most of the energy that is spent cooling down your house is when you first turn on the AC and it has to expend energy to pump out refrigerated air. If you aren’t sure if your AC can support a thermostat, find a professional to look at it. For example, if you live in the Utah area, work with a Utah air conditioning specialist.
- Create shade around your home to keep out direct sunlight. If you can’t plant trees around your home, look into purchasing sturdy window shades, covers, or curtains that can help keep out most of the light. A good deal of the heat in your home is transferred through the direct sunlight that streams in.
- Make sure that ducts and vents in your house are working correctly and aren’t clogged. Much of the air circulation that will happen from your central cooling system will utilize these ducts and vents, so make sure that the air can pass freely through them. Also make sure that you air filters are changed regularly, which will also facilitate the movement of air currents throughout your home.
