Currently 34C in the living room (with window open and west facing), and
28C in the bedrooms (east facing). As for the humidity, I don't know but
it certainly is stifling.

Our house is highly insulated (and getting better as we are currently
insulating the floors). Problem is we have large windows and when the
sunlight shines through them the temperature soars in the room.


Do you close the curtains? I open all the windows and doors when I wake up -
about five o'clock - then close them about nine. Curtains are kept closed
in sun-facing rooms. Yesterday I maxed at 26 downstairs.

Same tactics here and with 26 max downstairs yesterday (outside showed
31 but it's not screened, though not in the sun just placed where its
not going to be in the sun, wireless indoor/outdoor) - except that I
open windows not facing the sun, beautiful breeze hitting me now.
