But do you know that while keeping a room heater in the house, you should also take care of some rules of Vastu? Yes, there is a direction to keep the room heater, which most people are not aware of. So, today in this article, Vastu ShastriDrAnand Bhardwaj is telling you what rules of Vastu you should keep in mind while keeping a room heater in the house-

Keep the heater in the right direction

  • While keeping the heater, it is very important to pay attention to its direction.
  • Since the heater is related to the element of fire, it is considered very good to keep it in the southeast direction
  • But sometimes it happens that our bed is placed in the South and hence there is no space to keep the room heater there.
  • In such a situation, you can also keep the room heater in the northwest direction.

Avoid placing in North-East

  • It often happens that people's room heater breaks down again and again. Sometimes its elements get burnt, and sometimes there is a problem with its wire or plug again and again.
  • This problem may be happening again and again in your room heater because you have placed it in the wrong direction.
  • In such a situation, avoid keeping the room heater in the northeast direction. Apart from this, keeping a room heater in the South West direction is always bad.

Balance the elements

  • Vastu Shastra always emphasizes the balance of energy.
  • So, if you are running a room heater in your house or room, it means that you have given priority to the fire element there.
  • In such a situation, for the balance of energy, you must also include the air element there.
  • For this, you must open any window or door of your room.
  • It is considered very important. Room heater should never be run by closing the room completely.
  • It is not considered appropriate even in science, because it causes a lack of oxygen in the room.

Do not keep the heater on the ground

  • Some people use the heater by keeping it directly on the ground.
  • But doing this is also not considered appropriate.
  • When you keep it directly on the ground, it comes in contact with the earth's elements, which is not good.
  • Apart from this, there is also a risk of damage to your floor.
  • So try to keep it on a stand or try to keep it slightly above the ground.
