Summer in Mansfield, TX is full of sunshine, but let’s be honest—it can get hot. Whether you're new to Texas or just trying to make the most of apartment life in warmer weather, we've got you covered with a few easy ways to stay cool, comfy, and summer-ready here at Aurora Watson Branch.
1. Use Blackout Curtains or Thermal Shades
Keep your apartment cooler by blocking out the midday sun. Blackout or thermal curtains help insulate your space and reduce your A/C usage—your energy bill will thank you!
2. Stay Hydrated (and Stylish)
Invest in a reusable water bottle (bonus points for one that matches your décor). Keep it filled and in plain sight so you’re sipping throughout the day.
3. Make Friends With Your Ceiling Fans
Set your fans to rotate counterclockwise in summer—that’s how you get that downward breeze effect! It helps circulate air and makes your space feel cooler.
4. Use Your A/C Smartly
Set your thermostat a few degrees higher when you're not home, and close vents in rooms you don’t use often. Smart use = smart savings!
5. Chill Out with Summer Treats
Popsicles, fruit-infused water, and cold brew coffee are apartment-friendly ways to enjoy the season indoors. Try prepping a mini freezer stash for those especially hot days!
6. Take Advantage of Community Amenities
Cool off at our resort-style pool, or enjoy early morning walks on nearby trails before it gets too warm. Our location makes it easy to enjoy summer—without the stress.
