Hello folks,

Now that I have been so scared by the cost of operating an electric tank I am considering going with a gas tank. I have a good gas tank that is not sealed combustion. I have a couple of code questions
1. Can I locate this in the kitchen?
2. Can I place it behind louvered doors in a closet in the kitchen?
3. How long does the drip leg have to be?

TIA,
Molo
