sheds or other types of coverings, for an outside electric hot water heater

[Gary]

Have you, or anyone else heard about a shed; small outhouse; or other covering for an outside electric heater (40 gal, tall); for a double-wide mobile home? If so, where can I get(or how can I build) one?

Thanks

I can think of a couple of options: Buy a small vinyl shed/closet at some place like Home Depot or Lowe's, or build one with plywood and 2x4s. If you don't have access to the saw etc. required to do this, HD or Lowe's will both cut the pieces you need, for a nominal sum.

Running the power from the home to a portable shed could be a problem.
The electric code will require that the shed be permanently installed with a disconnect between the house and shed.
Check with your local building officer first!
