If your room is hot then read through the thread I linked to before, you'll find plenty of ideas for keeping things cooler there.
ETA I forgot to mention that a sand bath will help if he is hot, they need one anyway but many like to lie in the sand when it's hot, you need chinchilla sand (not dust for that) the tiny friends farm brand is the best.

Hello again! I have now ordered a sand bath along with the sand you suggested! Thank you, last night i filled a plastic bottle with ice and left it in the cage and he seemed to cool down, i also placed more wood shavings in as suggested but he still digs a big hole down to the plastic and prefers to sit and sleep on there, is this normal??!
