Summer weather is heating up, so you know just how important keeping cool can be.
We found this great money-saving tip to keep you cool: Not only comfort is a factor, in fact every year people die due to heat. Keeping even a small area of your home cool in toasty summer weather can be very expensive if you use your air conditioner. Instead, this simple air conditioner, an easy DIY project cools down a small area, and can be made in just a few minutes out of simple parts.
This is a great way to re-purpose a few parts that you probably already have laying around. Check out the full video & how-to after the jump:
Humidity = fail
Already did this it barely works
I actually made one that’s works really well. first the jug of ice needs to be mixed with sawdust before freezing, making it colder and last longer, also use smaller tubing so the air has to circulate all around the ice many more times before being forced out the smaller pipes, and a bigger fan not much bigger but bigger than that,. I used and old small turbine fan and it got down to 48 degrees in the house, also I made sure to use silicone glue and made a rubber like seal around the lid all the way around for a better seal and coated the cooler with a 4 layers of spray paint made to paint bbq grills, lasts a lot longer and stays a lot colder

My brother in SC belted one of these to the front of his Suburban!

Maybe the bottles otherwise mildew!!
Instead of $19, you could spend $100 and buy a window air conditioner that would cost less to operate and you wouldn’t have to assemble it
Just about as smart as leaving the freezer door open to cool your house
