Along with the suggestions above, you might put some curtains on those windows to block the strong sun coming in. This should drop the temps a few degrees.

Best to keep it less than the outside temps.
That can be hard to do, why I asked to see the rest of the coop.

If it's hot they will pant, hard to avoid that.
Here's some stuff that I do, and it helps, but they still may pant.

Thank you. I have added a few pictures but they were early on before chickens were in the coop. I will read what you attached as well.
