Hi there, time to share ways to keep your home cool during hot times

So ok, usual ways I use:

  • open everything during night
  • close everything during day
  • external sheets on windows without shutters
  • some curtains to prevent heat from going upstairs

I was also wondering if plants could also help inside, any ideas ?

Share your advices !

    As a northern Canadian, I kinda chuckle at the need for an air conditioner. Of course, my punishment in winter.

      They’re becoming more common in the populated areas of Canada, although it’s still a minority that has it where I live as well.

      Climate change is really obvious at this point, and the smoke is awful…
