You can protect yourself from extreme heat in a number of ways. If possible, access a cool, air-conditioned space while indoors. If not possible, take steps to lower your body temperature or cool your unit.
If you are at risk and you live in a building or residence that gets very hot, with inside temperatures of 31°C or higher, plan to go elsewhere during an Extreme Heat Emergency.
Do not rely on fans as your primary cooling method during an Extreme Heat Emergency.
