How to find which direction your house is facing
Step 1: Locate the main door of your house.
Step 2: Position yourself at the exit of your main door as if you are just about to step out of your house.
Step 3: Now, pull out your compass. If you don’t have a physical compass , smartphone apps work as well! Most smartphones have compass apps, and you can find good ones in your app store.
Step 4: Align yourself straight with the door and read the directions indicated on your compass. Hold the compass flat and steady to get an accurate reading.
The reading on the compass now indicates the direction your house is facing. For instance, if the compass points towards the south, you live in a south-facing house.
