As winters bid us adieu, it is time to pack your woollens. Summers in India can be extremely harsh and uncomfortable. But they do not have to be, provided you take the necessary steps to make your home summer-ready. Some of the best apartments for sale in Pune and other parts of the country comprise modern amenities and high-performing air conditioners, but following these basic tips will ensure that your home is well-prepared for summer and your life is cool and comfortable.
The floors
Carpets and rugs are beautiful to look at and add grace to your home. But when the sun is blazing with all its fury, these same rugs can become uncomfortable for the occupants of the house. So to ensure that the floors are cool and comfortable, stack away from the carpets, especially when summers are at their peak.
De-clutter
Unorganized and cluttered rooms not only make your home messy but also hot and unbearable. So start by de-cluttering your rooms. Scan through the things and discard the ones that you are no longer using. The ones that can be used in the future should be stored in boxes and kept in certain corners or places in the house like under the beds or on top of the almirahs, etc. This will also ensure that the stuff is not visible. If you have a storeroom, you can keep your less used belongings there.
Bring nature indoors
Plants and flowers are not only aesthetically appealing but also have many other benefits. One of these is their serene effect on the environment. So to enjoy the freshness of nature, decorate your interiors with indoor plants like aloe vera, snake plant, fern, weeping fig, and rubber plant. Apart from their cooling effect, plants will increase positivity, make the environment stress-free and enhance productivity.
Curtains
To keep the harsh sun’s rays out and the room refreshing, invest in some good quality heavy curtains. Draw the curtains in the afternoon when the sun is at its fiercest. This will darken the home and make it cool. During the evenings, you can pull the curtains and open the windows to let in the cool air. There is nothing more stimulating than the fresh air blowing in your face.
Do not complain that summers have arrived and the heat is unforgiving. The above-mentioned tips will not only help you make your home as cool and refreshing as possible, but they will also cut down on the cost of electricity. These tips are especially suitable for people who have a 4 BHK flat in Mumbai or any other hot and humid part of the country, built by prominent developers like Adani Realty.
