How To Protect Home During Summer In India?

How is summer in India?

In India, the summer generally lasts for 5-6 months in a year with an average temperature of 104 degrees Fahrenheit. This summer drains up to the entire energy in the human body and it develops a high energy deficiency in humans. I have faced a lot of water crises during this summer and most of the people tend to lose their house during the summer that is mainly because the lower class people who are living in the hut house which is constructed with the help of palm leaves catch fire due to the high temperature their by they end up losing their houses. Here, we will see the tips to protect the home during summer in India

Even in most of the houses which are being well-constructed face the problem of fire accidents which take place due to the external heat which directly affects the electrical cables and thereby a huge amount of fire explosion takes place.

The temperature keeps increasing every year during summer if it goes on like this life existence during summer would become highly difficult.

Measures to be taken:

External Measures-

One of the major steps which I always take during summer is coating my house with Monarch Heat Reflective coating (click to check the current price on Amazon) which prevents the heat from entering into the building and provides a cooling effect without any other effort. I bought them from amazon with allot of confusion but once I used them in my house I had a very good experience with them.

I usually make the best out of everything that is already existing. I always try to retain the temperature so that we can have a pleasant condition around us. They provided a very good cooling feel to the entire building and you can naturally feel the change even though its a very dry day it gives a very pleasant feeling.

The second step which I feel that is good for us as well as our surrounding is planting trees as much as possible so that it absorbs the heat as well as the poisonous gases that are polluting the earth atmosphere and provides us fresh air which intern is a natural coolant. Planting trees will make life easy it naturally purifies the air and safeguards us from all kinds of harmful environment and also if everyone around us starts planting trees we would never face such a high temperature even during the summer season.

Natural Methods:

Even the people liking in hut house should construct the houses with heavy wood instead of palm leaves because palm leaves have a tendency of catching fire very easily and they’re by safeguarding life would be very difficult. I have faced a lot of water crises during this summer and most of the people tend to lose their house during the summer that is mainly because the lower class people who are living in the hut house which is constructed with the help of palm leaves catch fire due to the high temperature their by they end up losing their houses. 

Due to summer water is already at its scares but I use the used up water or the water remains which are leftover from floor cleaning for cooling the terrace buy pouring out the water every evening so that the heat is reduced in the entire building and it provides a natural cooling effect without causing any damage to our environment.

I have got a tree sapling (click to check the current price on Amazon)  from my neighbour which they have bought from amazon. I first thought that it wouldn’t grow up to a tree as days pass by I noticed a remarkable growth in the tree and they are so refreshing. whenever I feel low I spend some time with those trees which gives me a lot of positive vibration and gives a huge shadow which protects me from the direct sunlight.

So I made it a point and after that, I have ordered many more plants so that I can cover my building with a lot of trees and plants which provide a good shelter. I usually make the best out of everything that is already existing. I always try to retain the temperature so that we can have a pleasant condition around us.

After effect precautions are taken:

Even after all these efforts taken due to the high heat during summer, the buildings tend to crack so at that time I usually use Cracksil (click to check the current price on Amazon)  so that I can prevent them from causing heavy damages like the demolition of the entire building.

The cracksil lasts for a very long period which is very useful since it protects us from higher risk. I usually make the best out of everything that is already existing. I always try to retain the temperature so that we can have a pleasant condition around us. Even in most of the houses which are being well-constructed face the problem of fire accidents which take place due to the external heat which directly affects the electrical cables and thereby a huge amount of fire explosion takes place.

The electrical wires which I have been using for years caught fire suddenly then I came to know about the heat resistive cable RrKabel (click to check the current price on Amazon)  which do not catch fire as easy as other cables do. So after that incident, I completely changed my electrical cables. Now I feel very much protected and secured after the change of cable.

Internal Measures-

I generally feel the construction of the building is very much important for the heat inside to escape to the outer space and to provide proper air circulation in the house.

I keep the windows open for an hour so that the heat inside the house would escape and gives space for fresh air to come in. I usually make the best out of everything that is already existing. I always try to retain the temperature so that we can have a pleasant condition around us.The internal cooling is more important for life existence.

At the same time to keep the cooling air inside the house, we require thick curtains that help in retaining the cooling effect. So recently I have bought a curtain (click to check the current price on Amazon) from amazon which is very much cheap at price when we compare to the other stops and online shopping at the same time the quality of the material was very rich and highly fabricated.

Ways to breathe fresh air:

Another way in which I push off the hot air from inside to the outer atmosphere is by Chimneys (click to check the current price on Amazon)  in the kitchen. They are very much useful because when we cook the hot air from the stoke gets into the entire space and never makes us feel comfortable so after I purchased my chimney now I feel so fresh even in my kitchen these appliances make life easier for people.

This is a mandatory appliance at every house because we cannot like without eating food so I feel we must all make life easy for people who work hard to kitchen. I usually make the best out of everything that is already existing. I always try to retain the temperature so that we can have a pleasant condition around us. Another way for ventilation is through the exhaust fans (click to check the current price on Amazon)  without which I feel you can never bring fresh air into the restrooms and bathrooms.

The exhaust fan which I have bought now has a high speed which helps in drying up the area faster and it brings fresh air in less than five minutes.

Changes to be made:

The flooring is also a major constraint in retaining the temperature so its better if the flooring is marble (click to check the current price on Amazon) , tile, bamboo flooring or hardwood. After all the discussions I decided to have a marble flooring which provides a super cooling effect and long-lasting flooring.

One of the simple ways to keep the internal environment cool but we often forget this method that is mopping the floor frequently. Once I understood this can be very much useful I have bought new mops (click to check the current price on Amazon) ​which help me in cleaning as well as they provide a cool environment.

I mop on a daily basis so that I have a cooling environment around me. I usually make the best out of everything that is pre-existing. I always try to retain the temperature so that we can have a pleasant conditions around us

FAQ

No, the heat reflection coating removes the dampness in the walls so it would be useful even during the winter and rainy season so you need not worry if it is a short term requirement.

Mosaic is not recommended because it does not provide any internal cooling effect nor absorbs the heat which is being present inside the house. But at the same time, it is not mandatory to use only marbles we can use tiles, bamboo flooring or any other hardwood. All of these would absorb the heat and liberates cooling. Whereas, the only advantage of using marble even though they are cost-effective they last longer when compared to other floorings.

Trees provide the maximum shadow that they can provide to the house and at the same time the poisonous gas that is being present in the atmosphere is being inhaled by the trees and plants and at the same time they provide us oxygen. The shadow effect prevents the house from fading and cracking. The trees and plants help in keeping the air fresh around the house.

The air conditioners do cause external temperature increase so that’s the main reason why we should have a Monarch Heat reflective coating on the external surface to prevent the heat from outside causing any damage to the external or internal of the house.

There is no issue in using the heat reflective coating paint inside the house but it is not that effective or required when compared to the external surface but it wouldn’t cause any problem if you use them inside the house.
