If its still 35 during the night then it will rise to that temperature inside regardless of insulation. Maybe more quickly without it. The point was insulation. If the min night temperature is 35, then you have air conditioner or you die.
This is what I do, living likewise in a well insulated northern house that sees sustained high temps.
I’d gladly take my well insulated home during any heat wave over a poorly insulated one. Anyone who thinks less insulation is the solution is misunderstanding the problem.
It’s fine to be frustrated by high temps. It sucks. But insulation is a friend in your fight against high temps, not a foe. Use insulation to resist heat rise during the day and use heavy ventilation at night to exhaust and exchange for cooler air. The alternative is to have low insulation and accept indoor temps being constantly pinned to outdoor ambient which is a recipe for discomfort.
Maybe read the last part. My current apartment is much better than my old one since I can actually create a wind tunnel, but even then it doesn’t lower it below 25°
And any apartment I’ve had didn’t allow for adding anything to the outside unfortunately. The apartments just weren’t designed for summer comfort.
I see your point. I do not see how you cannot cover the outside of thr window yet. I live on the 4th floor of an absolutrly insulated building in a much hotter region than Scandinavia. Covering window and letting air go during cooler nights keep temperature at approx -6 compared to outside temp. If outside temp doesnt go below say 26 during the night, then its air conditioning either way, regardless of insulating (but with insulation it remains cooler for longer).
Open all fucking windows during the night and close them and barrier them from the outside during the day.
Works perfectly when it’s still 35°c in the middle of the night 👍🏻
