If I need 120V electric at night, I will find a campground. I do not feel comfortable running a gas generator while I sleep due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
We've run our generator 24/7 during power outages, and the display on the bedroom CO detector has never moved off zero. We do use a Gen-turi though, to route the exhaust above the coach roof.
I worried about that, too. My generator is midship under a couch, but I've run it for several hours with the windows closed and without the Genturi to see if the carbon monoxide detector reacts. I have one with a PPM readout - it never moves off of 0. And I have an exhaust leak at the manifold.
I'm more worried about the furnaces than the genny as far as CO is concerned.
