Water tank: Vastu direction and placement
Best placement
Overhead tank in the south-west, underground tank in the north-east.
Avoid
North-east for an overhead tank, and south-east.
Why it matters in Vastu
Heavy overhead loads suit the heavy south-west, while underground water suits the north-east, the water zone.
Simple tips
- Keep the tank clean and covered.
- Fix leaks quickly.
- Do not place a tank over the kitchen or puja room.
Vastu Shastra is a traditional system of design guidance. It is offered here as cultural tradition, not as scientific or professional advice. You do not need to rebuild anything: simple changes to placement, color and light are the usual remedies.
