When the weather is hot, things can be desperate. I have seen my proper part of the hack – one of my colleagues covered their windows in aluminum foil – but the strange I have seen this year also supports real scientists.
So, people on Earth are spreading yogurt on their windows to help keep the heat out? Well, According to Dr. Ben RobertsA senior lecturer in healthy buildings at the University of Lofborough, it proves to reduce your home temperature.
Why yogurt can help keep you calm
Confation Time: I have covered Self First in curd. After taking a bad sunburn a day before my graduation, I was ready to try to do anything to reduce pain (and bright red skin), and according to the Internet, yogurt does a treatment. Therefore, I moved my legs and arms into the luggage and felt an immediate relief because it cooled my skin.
As it dried, it felt that it was pulling the worst heat from my skin. My flatmates thought that I was crazy, but I could confirm that it has done it.
So, is there anything magical about yogurt that can keep the heat out?
According to the BBC, research was largely attributed to the light color of yogurt when it dries, which reflects the light and forms a layer on the window that can reflect sunlight.
Better yet, this hack may not be very cheap. You can say that it is a little useless for spreading a completely good food on your windows, but according to researchers, the curd layer can reduce the internal temperature of the house up to 3.5 ° C (which 6.3 ° F) equal to the cooler “maximum 3.5 ° C” in a warm summer day. And it can be worth it.
Should you try it?
Will I try it? Honestly, I am not Completely Against him. I live in London, where we have no AC and forced to do some crazy things to keep the heat out when a heat attack attacks. And according to the researcher, once the curd dries, there is no smell.
I took it for a spin, which I would call a patch test, not ready to coat my entire window Extremely Nevertheless, and I can confirm that it was not smelly and dried up very fast. But I believe that I have not kept the hack properly in the test, I can’t suggest it to anyone else.
Talking to BBC, Dr. Roberts said: “It reflects the importance of treating windows and heat prescription solutions to windows to reduce overheating.”
So if I was you, I will consider doing something less messed up to cover your windows. We have first hacked aluminum foil, and it has really worked quite well.
Can it harm your windows?
I asked Z Oliver, stylist Expressed two-hearted doorsTo spread yogurt on the windows to keep the heat out.
“While the idea of spreading yogurt outside your windows can reduce the temperature of the house, we will strongly advise against it,” he told me. “The yogurt is acidic and, depending on the type, can be sugars or fat that can potentially damage the window seal, attract pests, and leave a sticky residue behind which is difficult to clean.”
“It is not designed for use on glazing and can do more harm than well, especially for modern coated or self-clean glass, which may be sensitive to abrasive or chemical contamination.”
Joseph Holman, CEO Green doorConsent.
“It is important to keep your house as cold as possible during a heatwave, but one thing we will attract the line is wasting good food to do so.”
On the second idea, perhaps I will stick to the method of caves.
