Need Advise

[myfs_133295]

Hi

I know nothing about fengshui, I need help on :-

1) I am currently staying in a rented double storey house and caring for 2 toddles age 1 and 3. Ineed your advise as I wanted to move my stove to thebackyardfor the safety of the children, they always play with knobs on the stove it is very dangerous. The backyard is an enclosed area with polycarbonate skylite roofing, metal zinc fencing and cemented flooring. It is very spacious, 5' x 18', well lighted and airy and it is situated at the south sector of the house.

2) Is the placement of refrigerator opposite the sink ok?

Any fengshui remedies?

Dear Joselyn,

1. Can understand your concern. It is very common even locally in Singapore for families to move their stove to the back of the home. But do take note of the following situations:

1.1 If possible for married couples, avoid having two stoves i.e. one in the back yard area and other stove in the "dry kitchen".

1.2 If there are two stoves installed, try to make sure that all (burners) hobs or burners add together totals = even number. Thus if the backyard stove has say 3 (burners) hobs, then the dry kitchen should preferably have 3 hobs and the combined total no. of (burners) hobs = 6.

1.3 Those induction stoves are not counted or should not be counted. Thus, if you have a stove at the backyard, preferably, the stove should be a two or four burner type. And if you have a "flat" induction stove in the dry kitchen, this is not counted as a (burner - stove). As it does not "shoot" out flames.

2. As both are considered "water element" because fridge can contain liquid (water) or is laden with water moisture it is perfectly normal to have the sink face the frige.

3. Traditionally, in Singapore, the advice for those who do up their new unfurnished kitchen to have the sink slightly higher than the stove e.g. by a few cm. But nowadays, with 2,000 or more condos, these usually come with standard kitchen fittings thus the stove and sink are on the same level. Thus, what I mentioned earlier is more for public housing flats - not compulsory, today. thou.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
