are the windows covered...I have a room facing east...and we have blinds and a sheer curtain and drapes so no light comes in because I have to sleep in verses waking when the sun pops up....we keep the blinds and curtains closed till the sun is up a bit more and then open up the drapes and blinds...we also have windows open in the evening well open most of the time...
do you have an obsoleting fan you may need two of them...they move on their own and a couple with the windows open might help
a ceiling fan with a light is a great investment
I have a smaller bedroom with a very large tv in it and that tv really heats up the room...just something to think about
opening your door might help too...
I think the room is so new you just need to make a few adjustments...plus we have a two story home and upstairs is unbearable on a warm day

Yep, fans just blow hot air around. Get a window unit air conditioner. It goes in your window and you can turn it on and off as needed. You might even find a used one on Craigslist. They're worth it!
my room is like this. its the coldest during winter. hottest during summer. i just got new curtains. dark curtains. and because theyre so long the air doesnt get thru, i folded the length in half and pinned it up. it makes my room pitch black and cooler.
Use dark curtains and use thin white blankets and sheets.
here it gets hot around 3PM so depending where you are it's the hottest part of the day that will heat the roof, or one side of the house and especially if you have metal siding on the house and the house is not insulated. You'd have to have insulation in the ceiling (if it is the last ceiling before the attic) and the walls of the attic plus you'd have to have insulation in all the walls of the house to keep the rooms cool or cooler than they were. Sometimes when there is a room addition after the house was built and they forget to insulate it then they'd have the problem you do.
Do you have central air? If so you can put a fan underneath the ceiling vent and the air that comes down will then get circulated into the room. If on the other hand that central air is not cooling properly in any room then the pipes attached to that vent need to be cleaned out and add more freon.
while there are such things as a window air conditioner it might be unsafe to have that where you live because someone could break in. Do you have insulated draperies? Is your window only single paned (a double pane window would be better).
I finally got my own room, but it happens to be the hottest room in the house. The room has two windows which are facing east, so when the sun rises in the morning, it goes right into my room. I'm pretty sure that is what's causing it. Are there any cheap ways to make the room cool? Right now I have a fan running all day but I think all it's doing is just blowing hot air around
