Smelly highrise building

昨天回到家,習慣性地開窗,陽台的窗會加上抽風扇將熱氣快一點抽出去,房間的窗戶是讓室外空氣流入。

開了不到半小時,從房間窗戶飄進來討厭的濃厚油煙味,只好關掉房間的窗戶。這時候油煙味還是會從廚房的抽油煙機飄進來,想說要將陽台的抽風機反向將室外空氣抽入,結果又聞到煙味。

被迫將兩邊的窗戶都關上,只好打開冷氣,不然就會很熱。這種情況幾乎是每天都發生,不是只有昨天晚上才會這樣。我們想要省電及過著對環境友善的生活,但實際上卻無法做到啊。

When I came back to my home on the top floor of the highrise building after work last night, I open the window as usual. The balcony window will be equipped with an exhaust fan to draw out the hot air faster, and the room window will let the outdoor air flow in.

After opening for less than half an hour, the nasty smell of oily smoke came in from the window of the room, so I had to close the window of the room. At this time, the smell of cooking fumes will still float in from the cooker hood in the kitchen. I want to say that the exhaust fan on the balcony should be reversed to draw the outdoor air in, but the smell of smoke will be smelled again.

We are forced to close the windows on both sides, I had to turn on the air conditioner, otherwise, it would be very hot.  It has happened almost everyday, not just last night.  I want to save energy and live environmentally friendly, but the reality makes me unable to do so.
