Try to keep your home cool:

• Do not rely on a fan as your primary cooling device
• Cover windows with drapes or shades
• Weather-strip doors and windows
• Use window reflectors such as aluminum foil-covered cardboard to reflect heat back outside
• Add insulation to keep the heat out
• Use a powered attic ventilator, or attic fan, to regulate the heat level of a building’s attic by clearing hot air
