Geomantic taboo in balcony reconstruction of old houses

I believe that many people will think of having a balcony when buying a house, and even this is the requirement of many people. If there is no balcony, it is estimated that this kind of house is not easy to sell. But the balcony can also be changed at will. So in Feng Shui, what are the feng shui taboos in the balcony renovation of old houses? Let this issue of balcony feng shui analyze it for you.

The balcony reconstruction method is wrong.

Don't turn it into a study.

Some people think it's a good idea to transform the balcony into a study, and the space is just right. It's okay to put a table and chair on it. But the balcony is closest to the outside world, so the sound insulation effect will be much worse. It is difficult to study and work in such a noisy environment, which will also greatly affect work and study.

Balcony is the most taboo to be converted into a pet nest.

Nowadays, many people like to keep pets at home, but in order to avoid odor, they will set their pet nest on the balcony, but this is a taboo in geomantic omen. As an important air inlet of the room, the balcony is a place to absorb the sun's spirit and good luck. If the pet nest is set on the balcony and not carefully cleaned, the air coming in from home will become dirty after passing through the balcony, which will seriously affect the fortune and health of the whole family.

Correct transformation method of balcony

Transform the balcony into a small garden

Transforming the balcony into a small garden is the most common practice. After all, there is always a place to decorate more green plants at home, which can not only beautify the home, but also refresh the air. Put more plants on the balcony, put comfortable cushions and small coffee tables, and a small space full of vitality will come out. When you are free, you can drink coffee lazily among many flowers and plants. This space is perfect.

The balcony was transformed into a tatami children's room.

It will be a choice for many people to transform the balcony into tatami. After all, many houses are relatively small now, and they all want to use every inch of space as much as possible. Transforming the balcony into a tatami children's room can make the room more spacious, and the drawer at the bottom can also strengthen the storage function of the room, but the balcony window must pay attention to protection and safety issues.

What should I pay attention to in balcony renovation?

Bearing weight

Because the balcony is generally a part that protrudes outside the house, its bearing capacity is limited. Therefore, if you intend to transform the balcony into a part of the living room, you must be careful and follow certain load-bearing principles. In particular, it is like a side wall that plays a role in wind resistance and load bearing. It is best not to move during the transformation, otherwise it will easily cause safety hazards.

Wall waterproofing is the most important thing.

Before laying balcony wall tiles, floor tiles or other materials on the ground, waterproof coatings (called waterproof coatings) should be used to make waterproof layers on the walls and the ground. After one day is dry, you can lay tiles the next day. Otherwise, the external wall will slowly seep because of frequent wind and rain. Wall and floor tiles must be soaked in water for a period of time before use until no bubbles emerge.
