Taboo of washing machine placement
Washing machine placement is taboo, and home feng shui is a part of feng shui research. Its research object is people and the environment. Although the washing machine is just a household appliance, its placement can change the feng shui fortune of the whole family. So, let's share the taboos of washing machine placement.
Taboos for placing washing machines 1 1. Place of washing machines
1, balcony
The balcony will be exposed to direct sunlight, and the shell is easy to age, so a protective cover can be added. Then wash clothes on the balcony, the water vapor is strong, so the socket needs waterproof. The biggest advantage of putting the washing machine on the balcony is that the washing area and the drying area are put together, which shortens the moving line and greatly improves the efficiency. Moreover, the balcony is well ventilated and is not easy to breed bacteria. At present, most families in domestic cities also put washing machines on balconies.
Step 2: Kitchen
Oil pollution, high temperature and splashing water in the kitchen need to be considered. If the washing machine is placed in the kitchen, it is suggested that the kitchen be larger and keep a certain distance from the kitchen sink. The launching position must be reserved and have a suitable slope.
Probably put it in the kitchen because there is no balcony, and the apartment is small, and the bathroom area is not enough to add a laundry area. Because of the particularity of some huxing, although the huxing is not big, the kitchen is very big, so it is placed here, but the kitchen is not an ideal place for washing machines.
3. Toilet
The bathroom is the wettest place in the house. Using the washing machine in a humid environment for a long time has potential safety hazards and is easy to breed bacteria. The washing machine can be placed in the dry area of the bathroom, and it is not recommended to place it near the shower area. If there is not enough space at home, be sure to put it near the shower area. It is recommended to turn off the power of the washing machine when taking a bath and cover the washing machine with a mask.
It's also good to put it in the bathroom. When taking a bath, clothes can be put directly in the washing machine, which saves the location of the storage box and facilitates drainage in the bathroom. If placed in the bathroom, the bathroom must be dry and wet to increase the service life of the washing machine.
Second, the washing machine installation matters needing attention
1, open the package and check it first.
After opening the outer packaging of the washing machine, check whether the washing machine is damaged during transportation and whether all accessories are complete.
2. Remove the transport bolts
Before using the washing machine, be sure to remove the transport bolts on the back, otherwise the washing machine will not only make a lot of noise, but also shake the body seriously.
3. Choose a flat place for installation.
Before installing the washing machine, the characteristics of the installation site must be hard, dry and flat, avoiding direct sunlight and away from heat sources such as gas. Never put the washing machine on the carpet.
4. If it is not stable, adjust the feet.
After the washing machine is placed, check whether the washing machine shakes smoothly. If you shake, you can adjust your four feet vigorously until it is stable.
5. Use special faucet for washing machine
There are special faucets for washing machines on the market. First, unscrew the four screws on the joint, then loosen the round plastic and metal ring on the joint, then put the joint on the faucet and tighten the four screws, and finally tighten the round plastic and metal ring on the joint.
6. Keep the drain pipe at an appropriate height.
In order to prevent the occurrence of siphon phenomenon, the installation height of the drain pipe should be between 0.6- 1 m, and the end of the cut drain pipe should not be immersed in water.
7, power connection should be safe and reliable.
The safety and reliability of power supply is the guarantee for the operation of washing machine. To ensure that the voltage is consistent with the parameters and specifications on the washing machine, use alternating current above 10A alone, and choose the fuse or fuse reasonably.
8. Wash the new washing machine before using it.
Because the washing machine will be inspected before leaving the factory, it will be sealed and sold to consumers. Because there will be some moisture in it, it will produce some peculiar smell after a long time. It is best to clean the new machine when it is used for the first time, such as running the program of "drum cleaning".
Taboo of washing machine placement 2 Feng Shui pays attention to balcony washing machine placement.
From the perspective of feng shui, the five elements of the bathroom belong to yin water and cannot resist fire. Aquatic wood makes a fire, and the five elements are born together. The washing machine put in it can make the family feel warm. If the bathroom is too small to hold the washing machine, the next best thing is to put the washing machine on the balcony. Hanging clothes on the balcony is very convenient, and it is generally far away from areas with frequent activities and will not be affected.
Need to be reminded that the balcony most suitable for placing the washing machine is: east and southeast, both directions belong to wood, and wood belongs to fire (washing machine belongs to fire). In general, try not to put the washing machine in the kitchen.
Judging from the five elements, the kitchen is a fire, and the washing machine is also a fire. Too much anger can lead to bad temper. Washing machines also have the characteristics of water, which can cause people's physical discomfort. Therefore, unless you have to, for example, the bathroom and balcony are too small to put the washing machine at all, so you have to put the washing machine in the kitchen.
Please don't despise the washing machine in home feng shui. So, before washing clothes, you didn't empty your pockets and let the money go with the washing machine. In the long run, your fortune may change unconsciously. Don't let the washing machine leak money
You can put a washing machine on the balcony.
As far as the protective measures of the washing machine are concerned, it will be exposed to the sun on the balcony, so if it is placed on the balcony, the washing machine must take sun protection measures, otherwise it will affect the service life of the washing machine.
Therefore, as long as conditions permit, it is not impossible to put it on the balcony, as long as drainage measures and protective measures are taken according to your own situation.
Advantages and disadvantages of balcony washing machine
Advantages of balcony washing machine
The washing machine itself is very large. For owners with little bathroom space, putting it on the balcony saves a lot of indoor space, which can be used as other storage. Convenient drying clothes is also a big advantage. No need to wash clothes, no need to hang clothes through the living room. You can dry it directly on the balcony. Besides, watching the scenery outside on the balcony is much better than washing clothes in the bathroom.
Disadvantages of balcony washing machine
Some real estate balconies will not be equipped with sewage pipes like toilets, so if the washing machine is placed on the balcony, the sewage can only be discharged from the rainwater pipes. After a long time, the pipes may be blocked, the rainwater drainage is not smooth, and the living room may also be implicated. Moreover, rainwater pipes are not very environmentally friendly. But now many homes are closed balconies, so there won't be too much rain seeping in. Owners with sewage pipes on the balcony need not worry about environmental protection at all.

People who don't believe in geomantic omen naturally think that there is nothing wrong with the washing machine facing the door, so they won't pay attention to the geomantic omen of the washing machine facing the door. But for people who believe in Feng Shui, it is of course very taboo to point the washing machine at the door, but it doesn't matter. It can be solved in some ways.
