What are some ways to keep my house cool during the hot summer months?

1. Use fans and open windows to circulate air throughout your home.
2. Install ceiling fans in every room, as they can help move air up and down instead of just side-to-side.
3. Place a wet towel or sponge near a window to help reduce the temperature inside.
4. Use a fan with adjustable speed settings so you can adjust it to the desired level of cooling.
5. Avoid using appliances that produce heat such as dishwashers, dryers, and stoves.
6. Keep curtains and blinds closed during the day to block out direct sunlight and keep cooler temperatures inside.
7. Open your windows at night when temperatures begin to drop to allow fresh air to circulate.
