Hello all.
Im sure you noticed this is my first post here.
After doing some surfing I thought I would join and cause lots of greif,
I mean maybe get some help and help others.
A little background- I have done many DIY projects over the years. My parents usually bought POS homes and forced us kids to "help" with the repairs. Through the years I have had some usefull jobs for short periods as well as being a machine tool electrican for 4 years.
I have been a general helper on a framing crew, a roofer and a residential electrican. Each for short periods.
Now I am a controls engineer, have been for about 8 years.
So anyway, I am adding a bedroom in my basement. As a result I am also putting in an egress window. The part that concerns me is that on one side of the area is the washer, dryer, utility tub, sump pump, and main electrical panel and the furnace is on the other side.
The side that the furnace is on will be a full wall. The other side is the part Im not sure what to do with.
Any advice you guys can give me is much appreciated.
Im already pretty familiar with the local codes regarding the egress window, but not so much with actually installing one. And the washer dryer area is another concern.
Thanks
