What are the best ways to keep my house cool during the summer?

1. Use window air conditioners or fans to circulate cool air throughout your home.
2. Open windows on opposite sides of your home for cross-breezes.
3. Install ceiling fans in areas with high ceilings, such as bedrooms and living rooms.
4. Place bowls of ice near air vents to create a cooler environment.
5. Place plants around your home to absorb heat from the sun and release it at night.
6. Use ceiling fans instead of traditional air conditioning units.
