I'm waiting for some manufacturer to introduce a portable generator dust cover that doubles as a noise shield - Perhaps a 2-piece enclosure that expands outward when the generator is running, and collapses for generator storage. The outside would be rigid and rain-tight, and the inside would be lined with sound-absorbing material.
Most folks buy a dust/weather cover for their portable generator anyway - So why not buy one that also reduces noise?
I made a folding hog house out of soundboard and duct tape. It was temporary and ugly, but it worked so well that I will be building a dog house that fits right over the generator. With a divider to keep the hot air from the inlet air.
I'm banking on you billh, been reading your posts for years and I do believe your the man with the plan. You could save the camping world by giving comfort to the ears from noisy gens. Yes, must separate the hot air (no pun intended) from the outside cooling air. Looking forward to seeing your post showing the 'new dog house' design. As for the 'Gen Tent' thing, it must require one giant compressor. Got to blow the hot air out some way? Right??
