5 Vastu Tips To Remember For Balconies

According to vastu, areas like balconies, verandahs and roof play a major role in balancing the overall energy of the house. Having a balcony in the wrong direction can negate all the good planning done for the rest of the house.

* North to northeast and east direction is considered as positive direction and south and southwest are considered as negative directions to construct balconies.

* The house is also given merits according to the location of the balconies. If the flats have balconies from north to northeast or from northeast to east then it is considered to be the best flat and the ones that have balconies in the west are of mediocre quality. The flats that have balconies towards south and southwest are considered as inferior quality ones.

* Ensure that the floor of the balcony in the north and east is always lower than the floor of the main building compound.

* Roofs should always slope towards north or east but never towards south and west.

* Normally people use balconies for utility purposes and place washing machines here. With the machine comes the trap for draining the water. Be extra careful that these traps are never placed in the southwest zone of your balconies. These can result in draining the wealth of the family living in the house.
