Using a domestic water heater for slab heating

I am aware that people have used a regular domestic water heater instead of a UL listed boiler to supply heated water to a closed <circulating water> slab heating system....
Well, This may do the job quite well, and replacement heating elements would be easy to find in most hardware stores.
But,, is this particular use of a water heater a violation of any specific electrical (2008??or??) or plumbing codes??
