Stop being cheap and power up those air conditioner units!

Other than that, just take very hot showers and drink hot tea; avoid extremely cold drinks (i.e. beer, soda) and beverages that doesn't really help with water retention (i.e. coffee, alcohol).

I wouldn't be surprised if the OP didn't have A/C. It's very common in Northern Europe not to have it.
