Thanks, I Googled and found some info saying that as long as it doesn't affect the access to the panel then it's OK in terms of code.AMD wrote: ↑ Don't worry about the water lines being close to the breaker panel. Nothing is going to explode.
A lot of homes are built like that, it's just fine.
In my house the main drain stack is right next to the panel. Annoying when working on the panel as there is less space, but other than that it doesn't matter.
But I still think the guy was sill to have the bleeder valve thing facing the panel.
