HOT ENOUGH FOR YOU?

Heatwave after heatwave. That is what you may be experiencing if you live and work in the Cape.
Cut down on solar heat gain considerably by installing blinds in all your windows.
With electricity hikes expected, even those with aircon should not rely entirely on them for cooling.

An especially good method to keep your home interior cool is to keep higher up windows open while your blinds are down. This means most of the solar heat that passes through your window glass will be trapped between your window and the blind. This hot air rises to the top window where it is released to the outside.
