Abstract

As climate change intensifies various environmental crises, health is also affected. One of the negative effects is the abnormally high temperatures during the daytime. Heat strokes, stress, and other health concerns related to extreme temperatures have gotten worse. Therefore, the study's primary purpose was to determine the effectiveness of "Farenheat" in reducing the heat experienced inside the house during the daytime, which was tested on a 60cm x 60cm x 70cm house model. A digital thermometer was used to gather the initial and final temperatures of the nine trials from the two samples of Farenheat: A House Heat Reducer from Acrylic Mirrors and Packed Water Against Solar Radiation. The statistical tools sum, mean, standard deviation, and one-tailed paired-sample T-test at a 0.05 significance level were used in this study, which were important in analyzing the data from the two samples. The results showed that the average change in the temperatures of the house model after applying the “Farenheat” is lower than the mean of the sample before applying the product. In addition to this, the analsysis showed that there is a significant difference between the changes in the temperatures of the house model before and after applying the “Farenheat.” Therefore, the product is effective in reducing the rate of increase in the temperature inside the house model.
