• As per vaastu for septic tank, the length of the tank must be in the east-west, while the breadth should be in the south-north.

Things To Keep In Mind

• You should never have outlets in the south. However, in case the vent is in the southern direction it must be turned to north or east.
• Bathroom and kitchen pipes must have their outlets in the north or east direction.
• The bathroom pipes and toilet pipes must be diverted to the north-west or west direction.
• The gutter can be in any other direction except for south.
• Pipes that come from the upper floor must never be in the south-west corner.

• The garage must always be built in the southeast or northwest of a house.
• When designing a garage make sure at least three feet of walking space is left inside after the car is parked. This ensures free movement of air and light.

Car Parking

• If you place your car in the west side of a northwest located garage, you will undergo a lot of traveling.

• Never park a car in the northeastern direction. This is because northeast is where the heavenly forces flow; a parked car would block these forces. However, at the same time, if the garage is in the basement, parking in the northeastern side is permitted.
• A garage located in the southwest would mean rare usage of the vehicle and constant repairing.
• When parking, always park the vehicle with its front facing east or north. This will guarantee that the vehicle would never get worked up.

Conversely, if the doors and windows are constructed in the right direction, they can bring in a lot of prosperity and luck.
