Please be ready with an action plan in case of blackouts. The Texas power grid operator ERCOT has urged Texans to conserve power to avoid blackouts.
Here are some simple ways to conserve energy and stay cool:
⚡️ Keep windows closed and covered
⚡️Avoid using the oven
⚡️Use pedestal fans the right way (position it by a cool air source and direct the air wave towards a hot area to push the heat directly out)
⚡️DIY air conditioner for extra cooling: place a shallow pan full of ice in front of a fan!
⚡️ Use your exhaust fans
⚡️Consider investing in a dehumidifier
⚡️Remember that electronics generate heat! Unplug unused electronics.
⚡️ Listen to your dad and turn off unused lights! 😜
⚡️ Choose cool materials for clothing
⚡️ Shower 🚿
