My coach exhausts the generator to the rear of the coach. If you are there, I must apologize in advance. You are going to get gassed! I do what I can but I am not buying an special hardware to mitigate the problem. If you are parked in a 24/7 generator area you are going to have to assume that folks are going to run their generator A LOT and few (if any) are going to do any special to deal with the fumes.
Frankly that is a hell of an attitude. Most or many places that allow for a generator to be run REQUIRE a stack. Also it is more likely to kill you than me. I slight wind shift and the fumes will be under your rig and drifting up through it as opposed to blowing into me. So when you wake up dead from saving $120.00 for a Gen-Turi stack, please don't come crying to us.
I guess you didn't read my post. Exhaust fumes are heavier than air therefore will drift down into your open windows from your exhaust stack
If that were to be true then why are we even concerned about CO? It obviously would lay in a layer only fractions of an inch thick at ground level. How did the CO get into my rig without a stack and with the windows closed? If Rose UP through various openings in the coach when it was blown underneath. Having the exhaust above the roof line allows the gasses to dilute and also to blow away from the rig rather than accumulate at the rig. Also being quite warm the gasses rise naturally. You can run your rig without a stack, just please don;t run it next to me. And maybe have your will completed so that should our loved ones survive they'll be covered.
