How to Keep Your Dorm Cool Without Air Conditioning

In August and September, when school starts, the weather can still be a bit hot. High schools with better conditions have installed air conditioning, while those with poorer conditions can only rely on electric fans! Back in the day when Teacher Wang was in school, there was no air conditioning in the dormitory! It was so hot at night that I couldn’t sleep! Then, the year I graduated, the school started installing air conditioning.

Today, Teacher Wang will share some tips to help you cool down!

1. The most traditional method: open doors and windows for ventilation

Open both the door and the window to help the air flow. I believe everyone knows this. If the door and window are aligned, the effect will be even better. One point to note is that when opening the window, make sure to open the screen as well, as the screen can significantly block the wind, and when it’s really hot, there are usually not many mosquitoes.

2. Use your own electric fan, not to blow yourself, but to place the fan at the window

Prepare your own electric fan, but this fan is not for you to blow; it’s for cooling the room. It’s recommended to choose a fan with lower power to reduce heat dissipation. The principle is similar to that of a bathroom exhaust fan. Place the fan at the window; whether it blows inwards or outwards is up to you. Personally, I prefer it to blow inwards because the wind coming in from outside is cooler. The premise is that it is indeed cooler outside than inside, and it is recommended to do this after 8 PM.

3. Place a basin of water in the dormitory, and if conditions allow, fill it with water

The evaporation of water can take away heat. You can add some floral water to the water to help repel mosquitoes. If you don’t like the smell of floral water, you can drop some of your favorite essential oil, such as lavender, to make you feel comfortable and reduce heat. During the day, place the water outside the window to reduce heat from sunlight. At night, place the water by the window to speed up the evaporation with the fan. Make sure to keep the water plentiful; if you’re not home during the day, you can fill two basins with water. If conditions allow at night, you can add ice cubes.

4. Use a small spray bottle with some alcohol to cool down

Using a small spray bottle is also based on the principle of evaporation absorbing heat. The first three methods take a longer time to be effective. This method with a small spray bottle filled with diluted medical alcohol can quickly cool down the room. You can adjust the dilution ratio to your liking; it doesn’t need to be too concentrated, as the evaporation of the mist itself is quite fast.

Teacher Wang is giving away mini fans!

If you’re afraid of the heat, you can prepare a mini fan. The USB-powered ones can be charged with a power bank or phone charger, which is quite convenient for use at school! Teacher Wang has prepared 800 mini electric fans, with free shipping nationwide. The price is only 9.9 yuan (fan + shipping), which is a little benefit for everyone! If you like it, you can buy it from Teacher Wang’s wife’s Taobao store. The store is newly opened, and your purchases will help me increase my credibility. I hope everyone can give me good reviews.
