If the house is well shaded, you will have no trouble taking a nap.

Recently, I have gradually felt that the seasons are alternated. The high temperature at noon has reached about 27-28 degrees ~ Our office because of the western sun, in the afternoon, the room often feels hotter than outdoor. Do you know where the heat comes from? Whether it is a home or a commercial building, in addition to the heat emitted by the human body and electric lamps, the indoor heat sources also include solar radiant heat entering through windows, conductive heat entering from heated walls / roofs / glasses, and heat entering through window gaps. Therefore, how to effectively isolate the building from heat is very important! Before the summer comes, let ’s study what methods can be used to reduce temperature and save energy, except using fans and air-conditioner~

✔Set up a small garden on the roof, which can be insulated, beautiful and can purify the air, and sprinkler equipment can also be set to cool the roof by spraying water when it is hot.

✔When the house is under construction or large-scale renovation, thickening the wall or using thermal insulation building materials can reduce heat conduction.

✔Planting trees or climbing plants on the exterior walls of the building can block direct sunlight and create shade and heat insulation.

✔Install light-colored curtains on the windows, or use insulated glass and paste insulation paper to isolate the heat from the outdoors and indirectly reduce electricity consumption for air conditioning.

✔Outdoor shading methods (such as sun visors, outdoor shutters) will provide better thermal insulation than indoor shading (such as curtain insulation paper).
