I had mine enclosed using white bead board on open side and louvered bifold doors in front to allow air intake. It turned out great and looks nice. No problem with access. On bead board side, contractor cut approx a 12/12 panel to allow access to back of air handler. Just unscrew about 4 screws and you have access. I am thinking it was approximately $500 to $600 hundred dollars for materials, labor, painting and they actually had to move light.

Anyone had this done? Who do you call for something like this and what is the price range? Moving it to the garage is cost prohibitive so I'm hoping to improve it's appearance and possibly quiet it down some. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Arrived less than a month ago and loving TV lifestyle. Just wish there wasn't so much to do in the house!!!!
