The summer months are really no joke when it comes to the weather. The heat that comes with the long awaited summer can be blistering. Most people need to find ways to stay cooled off and the majority of them are running indoors. The best option is to get in your house and lounge around in your air conditioned living room. The problem exists when your air conditioner is out or you don’t have AC. Long ago people would go to the movies to get out of the heat because the theater had AC while the residential homes did not. You need to have tips and tricks on keeping cooled off when your AC is not working.

Air Supply Heating & Air Conditioning Lists Ways to Cool Down in the Summer When Your AC Is Out

Sun = Heat: If you track the weather patterns in your area you know that the sun plays a large role in the temperature of the day. The coolest part of the day is when the sun has been down the longest. As the day goes on the heat will often continue to increase. That is why it is best to do what you can to keep the sun out of your house. This will stop the sun from creating heat in the surfaces of your house. Make sure that you go around and close up all the blinds and shades so that there is not sun spots around the house. This will stop these areas from gaining in temperature that will in the end increase the heat in that room.
Fans Are Good: If you are hot you might see people grabbing a paper and fanning their face off to find a way to cool down. The way that it works is the air that is being pushed passed your house will push by the perspiration and cool your skin down. That is why it is important to use the ceiling fans in your house and stand up fans as well. The ceiling fan can be set to spin backwards which can help pull the air up and move the heat. You can use a box fan in a window to blow the hot air out of the house depending on the placement. Be sure that you utilize the fans that you have and set them to spin in the right direction.
Hydration is Key: The next thing that you can do to keep your body from feeling over heated is to ensure that you are hydrated. The more water that you drink the easier it will be for your body to work and function. That means less energy is being displaced and that is why your body temperature will stay down. Make sure that you have a cold drink of water with you to keep hydrated. You can also use cold water or ice to apply a compress to your skin if you are feeling heated up.
