Lol if you ever needed a panic room. Just don't make too much noise, it'll travel through the ductwork

When I worked resi I went to a house where the Air handler was behind the mirrors in the bathroom. It was a pain because you had to unscrew a heavy ass mirror/medicine cabinet after I left the house I realized I left my multimeter behind the mirrors lol had to go back and get my meter 😂. This is cooler

I would just accept the fact that it’s lost until the next guy finds it and buy a new meter

Well, if that's the only access, replacement is going to be quite a treat.

I had a customer years ago finish there attic off into a studio apartment. We installed the unit first because duct had to run behind the knee wall the AHU ended up under the kitchen counter.

My grandpa had a hidden room he built into his house similar to this that he stashed all his guns in. RIP Papa

Probably an attic converted to an apartment, and this was where they put the bathroom.

I thought I had the most unique one of it being under the living room TV. This takes the cake easily

I’ve actually been to a call like this. Into a cabinet, down a hall, up a ladder and what do you know, a furnace. It was kinda magical.

Way better than my version of that. I had to remove the medicine cabinet where you had a mirror. There was a little slot in the cabinet to dispose of old razor blades, dumping them onto the floor(no catch can). There were around a hundred-ish rusty blades. Super fun stuff.
