Main Door: Analyze that there should not be any obstruction inside and outside the main door of your house. Check if your main door makes a noise while opening and closing it, if it makes noise correct it. Keep control that no body should knock or strike your main door very early in the morning, if it happens it is not considered auspicious.
Earth: Make sure you leave some part of your house earthen, do not cover with flooring. All the area covered in a plot with concrete creates vaastu defects. It gives an imbalance in planets.
Kitchen: Make sure the water sinks is placed in north and Gas Stove is kept in east direction of the kitchen this means that water element should be placed to the left of the fire element. Check the utensils, cups & glasses in the kitchen all these should be kept upside down. Also check for the flower vases and decorative glass bowls they should not be kept empty.

Plots with multi corners should be avoided, L shaped plots are a severe vaastu defect. Rooms with corners cut gives the effect of five or six corners but creates a vaastu defect.
Architectural creations for beautifying the rooms with multicorners should be avoided. It hinders the proper distribution of energies.
Magnetic Line: This is a very sensitive issue to be discussed in vaastu. Magnetic energy line starts diagonally from the Northeastern corner of the plot and ends at the southwest corner. While you build the structure take care that the flow of this line should not be disturbed. You should not dig a pit or water tank, sewerage tank on this line, if this is done the flow of the magnetic energy is disturbed.
By half knowledge from vaastu books, people place underground water tanks exactly in the northeastern corner, which cuts the magnetic energy line.

Overhead water tanks: Overhead water tanks can be placed in the Southwestern and northwestern areas of the building. Tanks should not come over your bedroom or office areas. Try to place the overhead water tanks above the toilets and bathrooms.
Feet: Do not ever touch the fire with your feet, Match sticks, cigarettes are part of fire do not turn them off with your feet. Do not open the door pushing with your feet. Rubbing your feets with one another brings bad luck. Do not sleep crossed legs.
