Mr. Wizard,
The issue is mostly noise that seems to be coming mostly from around the bedroom windows even when shut. Also, when placing my hand on the closet wall next to head of bed, I can feel the vibration. Perhaps I will line the inside of closet wall with a sheet of something to reduce the vibration. I might make a few noise absorbing panels for the three windows and see if that helps. I also might fabricate a thin flexible enclosure of Dynamat to surround the generator where it is mounted if I can secure it in place somehow.
I wasn't sure if the generator was mounted on rubber bushings or not, but I'll check with Winnebago tech rep about the torque settings for the mounting bolts. Thanks for the tips.
Next time I plan to use the rig will be in the spring (living in Alaska) however, while I have the time, I wanted to develop a plan of action to solve this problem or at least improve the situation. Thanks for all the suggestions.
