Part Two
The Plan
By putting the equipment room here:
This "alcove" is directly under the sunroom and the two windows are in my woodwork workshop.
By locating it here I could kill these four birds (please note that no birds were actually killed during the construction of this room
)[list=1][*]A new wall to enclose this space would support the joists 6’-0” out from the house.[*]The resultant space would be “outside” of the house [*]The equipment room would be directly under the tank minimizing piping runs.[*]I would not have to give up room in the basement and it would keep the water heater out of a potentially humid environment. [/list=1]
I guess that’s five birds – but who’s counting (PETA maybe
).
So we had a plan – now onto construction. Stay tuned dear reefers.
