I do this all summer. Late afternoon/early evening when it gets a bit warm, I use spray bottles I keep around the house to spritz myself.

This keeps me cool until it cools down again outside.

I haven’t had the ac on once.

That’s great. Here In south Florida it would take a week for the ac to get back to speed if we turned it off.

If you want to get really serious, you can cut cardboard (the strong kind- like TV’s come in) to fit the windows.

THAT really helps both winter and summer.

You must not live in Texas. It was a cool 90 degrees this morning. At least it wasn’t 95 till after lunch. But still cooler than the usual100 or better.

Hottest summer on record in Las Vegas and it’s still going strong. Much cooler than last month though. Pretty much 115-120 in July.

I would’ve been happy with 97 today. It was 108 here, east of Pasadena.

We had no a.c. in TN when I was growing up. We had a huge ceiling fan in the hall and my Mom did the same thing.

I do this with a whole house fan and it is awesome what a great idea you had
