Visit public cooling centres in most community centres and libraries, or other air conditioned spaces such as shopping malls, movie theatres, or neighbourhood organizations. If indoor temperatures exceed 31☌, and you are unable to cool where you live, plan to go elsewhere. The risk may increase significantly when indoor temperatures are above 31☌. Guidance from health partners indicates that it may be unsafe for some people at greater risk of heat illness to spend time in indoor temperatures above 26☌. Indoor spaces can be hotter than outdoor so it’s important to make your indoor space cooler or find an outdoor space with lots of shade and running water. A few modifications can make a big difference, including: identifying spaces where you live that may be coolest, or installing a window air conditioner, thermal curtains, window coverings or heat pump.

This summer, monitor both indoor and outdoor temperatures and make a plan to stay cool. Extreme heat can cause illnesses such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

When the weather gets hot, both indoor and outdoor temperatures can rise to dangerous levels. As the summer season arrives, the City of Vancouver is reminding residents to get prepared and stay safe during hot weather.
