Vaastu principles from the ancient vaastu shastra can be adapted to suit the needs and requirements of modern homes. This ancient science is an integral part of any good construction. Every direction has its own significance and placement of the rooms according to their attributes is important. If there is an imbalance of the five elements or the direction and the placement of a particular part of the house are not matching, there can be an imbalance in the well-being of the dwellers. Constructing a house according to the principles of vaastu can result in harmonious and healthy living of the people living in that house.

All items regarding fire and heat energy like the generators, main switch etc, should be in the south-east direction of the house.
