    Electric Furnace in a Bedroom Closet?
    I am considering turning my garage into a bedroom, but this would require building a closet to hide the electric furnace and water heater. Is this legal? Safe? I can't find any information online for this, so either I don't know where to look, or it's never been done before. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Will work just fine, may be a problem if you had gas units, but not electric. Just make sure to leave enough room to get them out later.
