How to cool your apartment without using a fan

Heat waves can affect our well-being and sleep comfort. Therefore, it's worth cooling down the apartment during the day to enjoy a pleasant temperature at night. However, you should not turn on a fan. We explain why.

June, July, and August are the months during which we battle high temperatures. While on the one hand, we enjoy vacations and time off, on the other, we struggle with much worse well-being and even irritability. However, we can quickly cool the apartment to be more pleasant at night.

Each of us probably has our way of cooling the apartment. If none of them have met your expectations, two methods that always work are worth trying. They are simple, cost nothing, and will make the apartment cooler.

1. If it's hot and sunny outside, never open the windows. While it may seem like a good step, open windows will let hot air into the apartment and not cool it down.
2. During heat waves, make sure that all windows are covered with blinds or curtains. This will keep the sun out of the apartment.

Many people invest in fans and air conditioners during the summer. While this is a solution, we should be cautious when using them. This is especially true for fans, which can do more harm than good.

Firstly, people who suffer from severe dust allergies and their effects, such as hay fever, should not use fans. Dust often settles on fans, so if they're not regularly cleaned, they can quickly trigger an allergic reaction.

Secondly, fans dry out already dry air. Our body, which tries to defend itself in such a situation, will produce more mucus. This can lead to dehydration, runny nose, nasal congestion, sinusitis, and even bronchitis.

Thirdly, constant exposure to cold air can cause joint pain and stiffness. We must be cautious about the temperature in the room.
