I have a hallway closet that should be a great storage area, but it is crammed full of stuff… The indoor air handler for the Heating plus A/C device sits in there on a stand.
The water tank also is in there. That means I need to wedge a tote plus mop in the space between, i have a dust pan plus cleaning products on top of the water heater. That is basically it when it comes to spacing. I can’t wait for those units to die, however when the Heating plus A/C quits I want to get a ductless mini split system. I want indoor air handlers in the home offices for zone control. That would free up 50% of the closet space. The hot water heating system is around 17 years old. When it dies I am going to replace to a tankless water heater. It is about the size of a small suitcase plus can give on demand hot water. I don’t really love those things. I just like that I can have my closet. With the water heating system wall mounted, I have more space to store things. I want to put up a closet bar plus hang coats plus sweaters. I want to put shoes plus the rest of my cleaning products. It will make the living room plus powder room storage areas less bloated. It makes sense that the hallway closet has coats plus shoes; Right now it is just storing ugly, pointless equipment. I know my hubby is a bit hesitant to change to a tankless water heater, but I think my associate and I will love it.
