on the tiled kitchen floor, with the ceiling fan on

Posted: 11 Aug 2022, 09:39Does opening all your windows and doors actually help to reduce the temperature in your house, or is closing your blinds and curtains sufficient? Or both?
What's the general consensus on this?

I find it depends. We’ve had windows open all night but I closed them when we got up before it warmed up too much outside and I’ve kept the blinds closed. We’re all shut up now and have a fan running and it’s okay.
A few weeks ago I found that opening the windows during the day did no good whatsoever as the air was so still but yesterday there was a breeze so I opened them in the afternoon and the breeze blew through and it was quite pleasant.
