Natural Ventilation is always a quick solution:
It is an easy way to keep your home cool during the summer months. Open windows and doors to create a cross-breeze, which can help cool your home naturally. This method is particularly effective during the cooler parts of the day, such as the early morning or late evening. By allowing fresh air to circulate through your home, you can create a comfortable and refreshing environment that can help you beat the heat.

Placing indoor plants in your home can also help keep it cool during the summer months. Indoor plants not only help purify the air, but they can also help regulate humidity levels, which can help keep your home cooler. Additionally, they add a natural and refreshing touch to your home décor, creating a comfortable and relaxing environment.
