Can you imagine you’re night and day without a room air conditioner during hot summer months? Perhaps not. One of the flip sides of mass urbanizations is that our towns have become concrete jungles and the green zones in our cities are being reduced to few pockets. Especially if you reside in a high-rise building, the wrath of the sun will not spare you. But running the AC for long hours can burn a big hole in your pocket. So what do you in such a case? The answer lies in adopting the following hacks that will keep your home cool for the longer duration of time. Invest is an Energy Efficient Air Conditioner Buy an energy efficient Ac like a Samsung Invert split room air conditioner which comes with an energy efficient digital inverter eight pole the keeps the temperature of the room to the desired levels. As a result, the AC consumes less electricity to operate. Faster cooling is yet another important feature of this amazing appliance. Just switch your Ac to fast cooling mode, and within minutes the temperature of your room will significantly reduce. Unlike regular Ac, the inverter split Ac after a period of fast cooling automatically transcend to comfort cooling so that the occupants of the room don’t feel inherently cold. The shift from fast to moderate cooling also conserves power consumption. Use double layered blinds and curtains If your home is south facing, it’s likely that your home receives bright sunshine throughout the day. Although the flow of natural light is great, during hot summer months the direct rays of the sun can be overbearing. Therefore, buy double layered blind and curtain for your home. The double layered curtain will prevent the heat from entering the room. Also, if the room is less heated, the burden of the compressor of the Ac will also reduce. This is, in fact, a very inexpensive way to lessen the temperature of your home. Limit the use of Lights Even energy efficient light bulbs like LED or CFL emits a lot of heat. Therefore, try to limit the use of light during the day. Fortunately, days are longer during summer months. Therefore, you can very well rely on natural light during most part of the day. Decorate Home with Indoor Plants Indoor potted plants not only spruce the décor of your home but can also help in reducing the indoor temperature. Plus, sometimes excessive use of air conditioner can strip the indoor air with humidity. Although excessive humidity is not good, a slight level of humid conditions can help fight viral infections and allergies. At the same time, indoor plants also improve the air quality of a home. Therefore, buy a few indoor plants that require very little management and care. Aloe Vera, snake plant, miniature rabbit plants etc. are examples of easily manageable indoor plants. Green inside your home is also very soothing to eyes and said to impart a very positive and vibrant vibe. Switch to Light colour Linens Remember you are always advised to wear light colour clothes because it absorbs less heat. Well, the same rule also applies to linens as well. For a while put away all the dark linens, bed sheets, and cushion covers and replace them with bright, light and floral prints. Also, do not use satin covers and sheets and stick to breathable and light fabric like cotton. With these simple and doable hacks, you can assure to have a breezy and easy summer. Many people dread hot summer months, but it is also a time to enjoy cool summer treats and organize poolside parties. So, don’t let the heat take over the year, instead keep things fresh and simple. Happy summers!!!
