Another couple of suggestions:
- plant / maintain trees or shrubbery to provide summer shade. Deciduous trees perhaps better than evergreens since they let some sunlight through in the winter, but not in summer. - remove portable window a/c units in the winter - add a link from the tips list to this thread to invite list readers to make more suggestions / comments - in addition to window awnings, also consider covered porch/verandas designed to block high summer sun, but let low winter sun inside
