  • Answer:

    You can try to make a homemade air conditioner. You'll need: - A fan (you already have) - Copper tubing - Aquarium pump - Cooler and Ice Coil the tubing to the fan Run the tubing to the ice filled cooler and back Use the water pump to move the cold water. Turn on the fan. You get the idea, some ingenuity tweaking may be required for optimum results. Check out this link to one example, and it has links to more examples. Good luck Xcalibur.

Keep all windows and window coverings shut on the windows that the sun is shining directly in. Open all other windows. Put your fans in front of the windows, on oscilating. You want to blow the hot air out as much as you want to bring the cool air in. Try not to do any major cooking during the hot times of the day. Try not to take hot showers that will drive up the humidity. Keep your windows open and fans going even at night, to give it a chance to cool down. If you can, open all windows and a door, to create a draft that will suck the hot air out. Good Luck!
