Is your AC down, and you can’t bear the heat of the summer any longer? Try this simple trick from Smart Fox on Youtube! Who would have thought that wet towels could cool down your apartment significantly? This method is super quick and hassle-free! Watch the video tutorial down below to learn this simple way.

Materials:

  • wet towels

Directions:

Step 1

To start, take a few towels and we them. (You can also wash them normally, take them out of the washing machine, and hang them up. This has the same effect because the point here is that heat is extracted from the air when the towels dry. This heat cools not only the damp towel but also the surrounding air because through the so-called evaporative cooling, you can thereby cool the apartment.) For best results, wet the towels with nice cold water.

Step 2

Wring out the towels. Hang them on a clothes rack which you will place in the room where you stay or the room you want to cool. (The easiest way to do this is to just hang washed clothes in the room to cool them down.) You will notice that the surroundings are much cooler and more comfortable.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
