People are going through a very harsh summer. Everyone is experiencing a condition of not being able to go out or sit indoors in extreme heat. AC cannot be used all the time due to high electricity bills and power shortages.

Moreover, buying an AC is a huge expense for common people. However, there is a solution to all this. A few scraps of cardboard are all it takes to cool your home. Let's see how to cool the house like it is airconditioned.

Necessary items

All you need is cardboard and water. Take a sufficient amount of cardboard to put on the terrace of the house on top of your room.

How to do it

Spread cardboard on the terrace, above the room which should be cooled. Then pour enough water to make it wet. This should be done in the evening. When you turn on the fan at night, the room will be cooled nicely.
