Direction doesn’t really matter. I am saying this for your convenience; for all of you, your houses face different directions. I can’t tell.
People have been sending their houses’ floorplans, and the directions their houses face. It is hard to find a so-called perfect direction for your altar. I prefer not to be too specific; you won’t find a direction that matches my expectations. Just make sure that it is a clean place, not your bedroom and far away from the bathroom. That is good enough.
(There is no requirement for the direction of the offering alter.)
Offering Alter Environment: Clean and spacious, not in the bedroom, far away from the bathroom.
