Hi, I wonder which house face setting is better, the south north, east west or what else and why. Thanks.

I prefer the house front door facing south/west so the back of the house in shaded in the afternoon. Frankly, it really doesn't matter.

In this hemisphere, the southern side gets the most direct sunlight. The northern side gets the most moss.

Align your windows accordingly.

Depends upon the view, the traffic, the climate, the floor plan, and so on.

I'm in WI, for example and I LOVE my four season's sunroom on the south side of the house, because the outside temp. can be -20 with piles of snow outside, but if it's sunny, the room is still toasty. And the homes across the street all have the house oriented so the back faces east. Why? Because they want to take advantage of the view overlooking Lake Michigan. My point? There are many factors to consider and no one right answer.

If you leave the wheels on you can adjust the orientation to find the one that you like best.

It depends on the width of the lot and where the hookups are located.
