E whakamahia whānuitia ana ngā tīwiri hiko i roto i ngā mahi ahumahi me ngā mahi ā-whare, ko te tikanga mō te tāuta, te tango rānei i ngā here miro.
He nui te mana o te tīwiri hiko ngaio, hei āwhina i ngā tohunga ki te whakaiti i te taumahatanga o te mahi, kia pai ake ai te mahi; ā, pērā i te whakamahinga kāinga, nā te mea he iti te kaupapa, kāore e nui te mana whakauru o tēnei momo tīwiri hiko.
Ko ngā whakaritenga mō tētahi tīwiri hiko pai mō te motuka he taipana me te tere ngāwari, he pumau, he pono hoki. Ka pā te taipana me te tere iti ki te whai huatanga, mā te whiriwhiri i tētahi motuka kaha nui ka pupuhi te tinana, ka taumaha, ka uaua te whakamahi. Hei tāpiri, ko tētahi tawhā nui o te tīwiri hiko ko te āputaputa, e hiahia ana kia tino pumau te pouaka miihini. I te nuinga o te wā, ka tīpakohia he taputapu whakarewa he tika ake. E taunakihia ana kia tutuki i ngā whakaritenga matua o runga ake nei i mua i te whakaaro tika ki te haruru me te roa o te ora. Mō ngā tīwiri hiko kāinga kāore i te tino whakamahia, ko te nuinga o te wā ka whiriwhiri ngā kaihanga ki te penapena utu mō ēnei taonga e rua.
