Cooling off isn't something that's done in one day or for a short period of time. Its just dropping the overall temperatures a few degrees for the breeding months in all of your snakes' housing -- all adults, males and females. It doesn't involve removing them from their cages/bins or treating them differently. Just punch down the numbers on the Helix's or temp control system on your racks. I personally don't cool, but I live in an old house in New Jersey. Good luck!
