Just playing "catch-up" on the thread.
I see back on page pg 413 (2nd post) "oldfordman" calls attention to
the distance a/the generator should be from a house to avoid
potentially deadly concentrations of CO.
So. CA has recently experienced a heat wave that resulted in power
outages. As might be expected, heat related deaths (etc.) are the
prime stories on the nightly news.
One of the stories is/was of a family using a portable generator due
to a power outage - and being overcome by high concentrations of CO.
The coverage showed the generator in the yard - quite a distance from
the house! Of course, there's no way to tell if that was the location
when it was running or not. [Victims apparently survived].
Anyway - good advice here as usual.
