Cooling down a house in tropical climate
I've a long term project to implement over the next two years, that is to make my house more ecologically compliant and energy efficient.
I live in a tropical country (Philippines) which has only two seasons (very hot and humid and extremely rainy non-stop for weeks at a time) so temperate climate methods do not work all the time here. I'm planning to -repaint the metal roof in white -repaint the interior and exterior with newer stuff (paint keeps on bubbling and peeling) -replace the windows with bigger ones to bring in more light and also have the new ones tinted -and a lot more you guys can suggest |
