A basement is typically cooler than the rest of the house because it is underground and lacks direct sunlight. The temperature difference can vary depending on factors like insulation and ventilation.
A fan can make a room feel about 3-4 degrees cooler by circulating air and creating a breeze.
No. One object will lose as much HEAT as the other gains. The change in temperature, on the other hand, will depend on the masses involved and on their heat capacity. It is even possible that one object's temperature reduces, while the other doesn't increase at all - for example, when ice melts.
Light-colored clothes reflect more sunlight, while dark-colored clothes absorb more heat. This means that light-colored clothes don't absorb as much heat from the sun, keeping you cooler on hot days compared to dark clothes which can make you feel hotter.
is a much hotter object compared to Earth, so it emits higher-energy, shorter-wavelength radiation in the form of visible light, ultraviolet, and infrared. Earth, being cooler, emits longer-wavelength radiation in the form of infrared.
Hotter objects emit significantly more radiation than cooler objects. According to Stefan-Boltzmann's law, the total energy radiated by a blackbody is directly proportional to the fourth power of its temperature. This means that a small increase in temperature leads to a much larger increase in emitted radiation.
under the entire house unless there is a basement....
14000 to 20000 that's 2-bedroom to 3-bedroom and no basement to full basement
This is really a question of taste, I believe. Which part of your house do you want to be cool? Many people opt for the bedroom, so it is cool when they sleep. Or, you could go for an energy-friendly alternative. In the house I grew up in we used to install it in the basement. As the basement was already naturally cool, one window unit was able to keep the whole basement nicely cool, and helped dehumidify it. I now live in Florida and had the same question but, we didn't have a basement. My wife called BudgetAirSupply.com at 855-473-6484 and they suggested that we install our portable air conditioner in the house which gets used the most. So, we installed it in the family room. Their advice was spot on and the whole house is much cooler now.
6000 dollars
Much of Jon and Kate plus 8 is filmed in the Gosselin's house. They put up a special st in the basement for interviews that can be taken down.
The sun spots are the cooler spots. They are darker because there isnt much heat compared to the rest of the sun
It cost around 10-25k, depending on size and current condition of a basement. 10k would be on the lower side, and in most cases it would cost more. Although, this would include just the finish basement and basic electric stuff (outlets, lights etc) if you want plumbing work (like a bathroom) or ac/heating it would cost more. And if you buy and then do a finish basement, you have to pay for it, if you buy a house with finished basement then your downpayment will only increase slightly. Still, you should buy a house you like. Finish basement isn't hard to do, as long as you can pay to get it done. BUt the main thing is that to find a good quality experience basement renovation or construction contractor. That will help you much.
Basement. There will be much more planning, re-inforcing, damp proofing and ventilation requirements as they will be under the main structure which they have to secure befor they can start the dig out process
The opposite (antonym) would be basement or cellar,or pretty much anything below ground since an attic is at the top part of a house.
it is about 10 degrees cooler.
Much-but it also blocks the light. Day sleepers use this trick all the time.
No, but leaving a cat in the dark a great deal of the time is not recommended, and could be considered cruel. Make sure the basement has no places the cat can get trapped in. Leave food, water, and a place to sleep, but it is much kinder to let the cat wander about the house as much as it pleases.
