6 Genius Tricks for Staying Cool Without Air Conditioning This Summer
Briefly

As blistering heat grips the U.S., health experts urge residents to avoid outdoor exposure, especially in rising summer temperatures. While some enjoy summer activities, many face the challenges of intense heat. To combat rising temperatures inside homes, experts recommend practical, budget-friendly cooling solutions. Suggestions include swamp coolers for dry climates, which effectively lower air temperature through evaporation, and proper usage of ceiling fans, which should be set to spin counterclockwise in summer to enhance airflow. These approaches can create a more comfortable living environment during sweltering days.
