Water Heater Relocation

I have a customer in a comercial building that wants to move a water heater from inside the building to the out. I plan on building a utility closet to keep it dry and off the ground. The heater is electric. I have a pretty good plan in mind but want to know if there are any conciderations that I needto address in the plan.
Thanks,
Winn

Re: Water Heater Relocation

I would really think about how you would protect the waterlines that feed the tank and that exit the tank from freezing. Maybe insulate them with the heat tape. I guess your in SC so maybe freezing isn't an issue. That would be my concern here in Canada.
