Can You Enclose A Water Heater In A Closet?
Yes, you can enclose a water heater in a closet as long as the closet is ventilated properly and there is enough space for adequate airflow. The closet should have enough space for the heater to be accessed easily for maintenance and repairs. The closet door should also be installed with a vented louver to ensure that adequate intake and exhaust airflow is present. Additionally, the closet walls, floors, and roofs should be made with fire-resistant materials. Fire hazard codes for your area should be followed.
