How to Keep Cool Without an A/C

While the most well-known method of staying cool, your home’s air conditioner isn’t the only thing that can save you from a steamy summer day. There are numerous cost-efficient methods of keeping the heat out during the hot season, like keeping the blinds closed especially during the hottest part of the day, placing a bowl of ice in front of the fan for a cool breeze, opting for cotton linens, setting the ceiling fan to rotate counterclockwise, and cooling your body with a refreshing drink or by applying a cold cloth on strong pulsed areas.
