All you need to achieve the desired coolness is to stick the material to the window.

However, there are a couple of subtleties that need to be taken into account. First, the window must be washed.

Secondly, the foil should be glued with the matte side facing the room.

Thanks to this, the effect of professional UV foil can be achieved in the room. Due to this, the sun's rays are reflected from the surface of the windows and do not heat the room.

Ventilation will also help, but you should open the windows when the night chill sets in outside.
