Did you know creating a free 'DIY Cool Room' saves you money, keeps you comfortable, and makes a 'big difference' in summer?

A sunny living room with blue velvet chairs, a white and blue patterned rug, and a pale beige couch with colorful cushions. To the right of the couch is a marble and metal coffee table with a large blue lamp with a white shade, and above are framed painted artworks. In the centre of the room is a circular glass coffee table. Open doors onto a balcony are seen in the background.

Fall may be on the horizon, but temperatures across the U.S. aren't set to drop anytime soon. If you've been struggling to cope, we've got the perfect solution – a DIY Cool Room. Better yet, it doesn't have to cost a single cent.

With one of the main caveats to using AC being the cost, this clever DIY trick focuses on cooling just one space, rather than your entire home. In turn, this helps you to save money and provides welcome relief to the sweltering heat at the same time.
