If there is no air conditioning: alternative ways to cool down in the heat

Here it is - the long-awaited summer with all its cool things: berries, fruits, tomatoes, eggplants, sun and air, green trees, a lot of positivity and good mood. But along with all these bonuses, we are very unexpectedly taken by surprise by the incredible heat, which simply kills (well, so far in psychological terms).

Yes, sometimes it’s impossible to be outside, but at least there’s a chance to get a breath of fresh air or cool down a little in the breeze. What to do at home? Especially on the upper floors of high-rise buildings. How to escape if you are simply melting before your eyes, and there is no air conditioning? Is this really the end...

Alternative to a split system: no less efficient devices

Calm, just calm. Yes, split systems are a real salvation in the heat, but on the household appliances market for a long time you can find other devices that are capable of producing a flow of cold air and cooling you down a little.

The simplest fan

A primitive and quite effective method is to use a conventional fan with blades. Yes, the method is not very effective, especially if the apartment is already hot, because the device will simply drive hot air around the room back and forth, and there will be no relief.

But if, let’s say, it started to rain outside and suddenly became cool, then the fan can be installed opposite an open window so that it quickly brings fresh air into the apartment. The method is generally ineffective, but it’s better than “I can’t breathe, I’m dying.”

Modern fans

Floor-standing device with radial mechanism. Unlike the previous option, it has a lot of advantages:

• possibility of electronic control;
• timer;
• ionization;
• low noise level;
• rotation adjustment;
• greater airflow coverage.

This convenient and compact appliance is especially suitable for family areas, living rooms and bedrooms. True, its efficiency is at the same level as that of a conventional model: when the room is hot, its use will only make it worse.

Mobile air conditioner

If you don’t have time to install an external split system, then such a portable device will be the best option.

This is a compact gadget for air conditioning rooms where it is not possible to install other types of systems. The technology has quite a lot of advantages:

• low noise level;
• mobility;
• the ability to transport from one room to another;
• lack of freon communications and outdoor unit;
• low power;
• high work efficiency;
• no installation required.

Humidifier

This is not a good method, since the humidifier is not capable of completely cooling the room. But at least it will humidify the air, so breathing will, of course, become easier.

The most effective operation of a humidifier is observed in tandem with an air conditioner or fan.

Bioclimatizer

This is a compact device that runs on water. It does not have a compressor or freon.Hot air enters the air conditioner through a grill on the body of the device, passes through a filter soaked in water, cools and is exhausted outside using a built-in fan.

Essentially, an air conditioner is a multifunctional gadget that combines an air conditioner, a humidifier and an air purifier.

There is almost no risk of catching a cold when using this device.

Breezer

Breezer is a supply air purifier that will provide your home with fresh, clean air when the windows are closed. A stationary device that requires installation. It takes fresh air from the street, removes harmful substances and delivers it indoors. The simple, compact design is devoid of the disadvantages inherent in alternative climate control equipment, easy to maintain, and economical. A significant bonus is that it can be used all year round, as it is equipped with an air heating function.

Breezer - a name patented by one of the Russian manufacturers. The devices appeared not so long ago.

How to escape the heat while the courier is on the way

So, you have chosen a device that will finally save you from the suffocating heat, you have ordered it, and paid for it. Now all you have to do is wait for the courier, because going out into the street, of course, is very dangerous due to the burning heat. What to do to cool the room and your loved one at least a little.

1. Close the curtains. A lot of heat comes from surfaces heated by rays. The denser the fabric, the better.
2. Try increasing the humidity level in the room. For example, hang a heavily dampened towel over the radiator or place a jar of water on the table.
3. Close the windows. If the street is completely calm, then the open door will not save you in any way, but hot air will still enter the room.

If nothing saves you at all, finally cover yourself with a wet sheet - the courier is about to ring the doorbell, and the long-awaited salvation will come.
