Hello everyone,
we are building a small house with 125m² (1,345 sq ft) without a basement and would like to keep the utility room as small as possible. The following equipment needs to fit into our utility room: fuse box, hot water storage tank, electricity meter/water meter, heat transfer station, possibly a water softener, and potentially preparations for photovoltaic systems. Additionally, a decentralized ventilation system is planned.
Could the technical equipment be installed under the stairs (which are planned near the entrance)?
Or could the equipment be divided and partly placed under the stairs and partly, for example, in the laundry room on the upper floor?
We would appreciate any ideas.
Best regards, Roni

Hi,
Friends of mine have their utility room next to the stairs, with the utility room extending underneath the staircase. This space can be used, for example, to accommodate a washing machine and dryer. This requires a closed staircase. So, there isn’t a lot of space under a staircase. They also extended the house by 1 meter (3.3 feet) in the area of the utility room to create more space in the hallway. But of course, this depends on the floor plan.

Thank you very much for your replies. We are planning a small utility room on the upper floor for the washing machine, dryer, etc.This does not change the fact that technical equipment requires space.
