Placement of the Chanukiah
Question
Which is preferable: to place the chanukiah in the window on the 8th floor (there are apartments opposite), or at the entrance of the building, or at the doorway in the stairwell (4 tenants on the floor)?
Answer
Shalom u-vracha
He should light in the window of the house. And it is good to place near them colorful lights that attract the eye, and in this way the lighting is noticeable even above 20 amot.
