what is the quickest way to cool my apartment? no a/c..?
Over the past month I have tried all windows open, shut, fan blowing in, out, everything. Three east facing windows in the living room that face a brick wall, two in the bedroom that face north (and an open courtyard) and another bedroom window that faces west. Oh and a kitchen window that faces west. There is barely a breeze SOMETIMES in the west facing windows... help ps its 5am and i am too hot to sleep, sorry for the silly *.bmp the southern wall doesn't have any windows or doors

2 old tricks for hot sleepless nights: 1. that hot water bottle you use in winter - half fill it and put it in the freezer or use an ice pack - you need to wrap in something to prevent condensation - I use an old sock. Put it in bed with you. 2. In extreme heat take the top sheet from the bed and wet it under the tap. Put it over you - as it dries it will cool your body by evaporation. Indeed it may be too cold for you.
