running generator all night
Heard different opinions on all night use as you sleep. Is it ok if all Systems are in good order and in a compatible area as to not bother others.

The generator is upfront, right behind the cab. Our bed is in the back. The kids either share the dinette or the cabover. Carbon Monoxide detector is in working order on the back side of the dinette.

Just a suggestion....Carbon Monoxide detectors should be mounted in the bedroom and high, not low like propane detectors. You should have one high in your bedroom and one high by the kids.
Incorrect. CO is heavier than Oxygen but mixes easily with nitrogen-Oxygen we breath.
Experts recommend to mount them at nose level.
I didn't say to mount them at/on the ceiling but instead, high near the ceiling as stated in this article - as opposed to propane detectors which are mounted at the floor level. Ours are mounted about 1-1/2 feet from the ceiling and could be at someone else's nose level but not mine. :)
