Air Ventiation.
Healthy house should have adequate air ventilation, so that air circulation smoothly and air fresh. Air ventilation keeps oxygen levels in the house while keeping the house moist.
Create air vents through window openings. Air ambient air conditioning will be maximized with cross ventilation or cross ventilation system. If not possible, can be ventilated through the holes of the wind.

Lighting
Healthy homes should have sufficient natural lighting. Houses that lack sunlight is very humid and uncomfortable and prone to disease seeds.
Generally, natural light is obtained through windows, but if not possible, light can be obtained from glass tile. However, the lighting of the house should not be too excessive, because it can make the eyes sore and the room becomes hot.
Floor
Waterproof floor is a requirement for a healthy home. The material may vary: tiles, cement, wood, or ceramics. Floors that are dusty or muddy other than discomfort can also be a den of disease.
The choice of flooring material is very important. For example, slippery floor ceramics can cause residents to slip.
Roof and Ceiling
Clay tile is considered the most suitable for homes in tropical regions such as Indonesia, because it is more able to absorb the sun's heat. Should avoid the use of zinc or asbestos roof, because it can cause the room to heat up.
The height of the ceiling of the house should also be considered. Because the ceiling is too short can cause the room was hot so reduce comfort.
Waste disposal
Every day, the house produces waste bathrooms, kitchens, and garbage. Healthy homes should have septic tanks and waste water disposal that do not pollute soil and ground water and odorless. Septic tank position should be made as far as possible with water pump.
Every healthy home has a covered garbage so as not to pollute the surrounding environment. Make two bins: for organic and inorganic waste.
Clean water
Healthy homes must meet the needs of clean water for the inhabitants, which is at least 60 liters per day per person-for drinking, bathing, washing, and others.
Pollution and Contamination
The most pollution produced by the home comes from kitchen fumes. For that, the house should have a smoke disposal so as not to contaminate another room. Also avoid the use of paint from hazardous materials, which potentially disrupt the respiratory system residents.
