Keep your NZ home cool this summer with a few key strategies. Create strategic airflow by opening windows overnight or in the early morning to draw in cooler air, then seal gaps to keep hot air out during the day.
Close curtains and blinds during peak heat to block significant warmth. Use fans effectively with ice for extra chill or to push hot air outside. Limit heat-generating appliances like ovens. For a long-term solution, consider double glazing for year-round comfort and added property value.
