☀️ It’s been a hot few days. Here is some advice from Gov UK to keep your home cool:
1. If possible, shade or cover windows.
2. Open windows (when safe to do so) when the air feels cooler outside (eg at night)
3. Use electric fans if the air temperature is below 35°C, but do not aim the fan directly at your body as this can lead to dehydration.
4. Check that your heating is turned off.
5. To reduce heat generated in the home, turn off lights and electrical equipment that are not in use and consider cooking at cooler times of the day.
6. Move to a cooler part of the house, especially for sleeping if possible.
