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.

X2 Agree they need to bring these gen exhausts up to safe standards, but the coach builders do not have their feet up against the fire of gov regulations for the gen or in fact for just about everything in a MH.:( You won't see a truck or car with an exhaust pipe without a converter and that the exhaust pipe is even or behind the fenders of a vehicle.
Take a look at the exhaust pipe on the gen on a MH. It is so short it barely goes past the side of the RV. No wind and it runs right up the side of the coach inevitably where there is a window. If there is a slight wind it goes right under the coach.
These RV's are NOT air tight and both the above scenarios DOES allow the fumes to enter the coach. Accept what it is and be safe about it.
In my coach when the gen goes on all roof vents are open. I planned and saved a long time to go full-time RV'ing, "I" don't want to wake up dead and have someone else get my money and coach! :B
