Hey guys, would like to get some idea on how to solve room being stuffy and no air flow issue.

My room is kinda like a L shape.. refer to attachment.

Red = door
Green = window
Brown = bed
Pink = fans (2 ceiling fan and 1 small stand fan at the corner)

[attachmentid=11316170]

Even though turning all 3 fans together, the room still feel very stuffy and hot during afternoon. Opening the window also not helping much. If there is no wind, the room is even hotter.

Just want to know you guys got any advice on how to solve this?

Two options ...

1. Budget method ..... exhaust fan

2. Expensive method .... air cond.

The heat from the roof is the 'killing' part.

ohhh yea i thought of installing this as well.. but I don't know how to install it myself hahahaha

the hot air just go to roof is it?

The purpose of the ceiling exhaust fan is not only to remove hot air from the room but more important is to circulated the heat built up in the area between roof and ceiling which is the likely cause of your hot room.

My upstairs bathroom fan is left on the entire day so that the place doesnt smell moldy and always dry.

Labour to install the fan wont be expensive .... max also 100 to 150. ... cheaper than aircond.
