These Indoor Plants Can Keep Your House Cool During These Hot Summers

1. Snake Plant

This plant is perfect for your bedroom, as this plant doesn't take any oxygen away, especially at nighttime. It emits oxygen and keeps your room cool and fresh, keeping you cool during those hot summer nights. This striking succulent is also known for removing toxins from the air.

2. Palms

The green leaves of palms like Areca palms, fern palms are not only lovely to look at, but also creates a mini-indoor rain forest, so it's the perfect way to give your home a tropical feel during the summer months. If you are looking for larger plants to cool off your house, this easy-to-maintain palm might be a good fit for you.

3. Aloe Vera

Having aloe vera in your house will not only keep your house cool but will also provide you with fresh aloe vera gel for treating nasty sunburns. It lowers the air temperature and protects the house from overheating. Aloe plants thrive in bright light and require deep watering every three weeks or so.

4. Chinese Evergreen

This is another plant well-known for its ability to purify toxins in the air. Group your plants together so they can create their own little atmospheric ecosystem, improving surrounding humidity.

5. Pothos

Also called the money plant, the pothos is a great plant as it requires little light and care, and it will keep your air cool and purified. When your plant looks a little droopy, you know it's time to water again. From time to time, a section of this vine may yellow or die. To save the rest of the plant, make sure to remove that piece immediately.
