drapes or furniture.
Ventilate attic (high temperature levels add to
normal cooling load).
Try not to use heat producing appliances during
the hottest part of the day. Turn lights, radios,
televisions, and other appliances off when not
needed.
Keep heat registers and cool air returns closed
or blocked off so cooled air won’t escape.
Use a vent fan in areas in cooking, laundry or
bathing areas to pull out extra heat and moisture
near its source.
