Heat Hacks To Stay Cool When Temps Rise

What’s your go-to hack for cooling down when it’s hot out? Seems we’re pretty inventive when it comes to trying to beat the heat.

According to a new survey, these are some of the creative ways people try and stay cool during the scorching heat:

  • Putting ice in front of a fan
  • Sleeping naked
  • Taking a cold shower just before bed
  • Putting a wet towel on your head
  • Sleeping in a separate bed from your partner
  • Putting your feet in a bowl of cold water
  • Sitting in a kiddie pool
  • Sitting in a parked car with the AC on
  • Lying on ceramic tile or stone floor
  • Sleeping on the floor
  • Hanging a wet sheet in front of an open window to cool the breeze
  • Sleeping in a damp T-shirt
  • Putting sheets in the freezer before bed


That last one is something I've never tried, but sounds oddly satisfying.
