RE: [RC] Keeping warm at your neighbors' expense - Terry Banister
Check out the Gen-turi generator exhaust system from Camping World ~ Item # 14041 $150 It reduces generator noise, and diverts the CO fumes above the RV roof.
How Gen-turi reduces generator noise: Exhaust noise comes from generator vibration and the sound made by
gases leaving the exhaust pipe. Gen-turi, secured to the side of the RV
with rubber straps, prevents transfer of the generator's vibration
noise to the coach. Noise is diverted upward, above the roof line. As a
result, in most installations, the exhaust system is quieter with
Gen-turi installed.

There are NOT generators that don't produce fumes,
however. Fumes are very unhealthy for people and animals. The following
article is about carbon monoxide poisoning. But, gasoline exhaust also
contains several other toxins that are carcinogenic (cadmium being a major
one). I don't want my horses (or me) exposed to generator fumes.
"The CDC reported that a small portable generator
will produce the carbon-monoxide of six idling cars, a reality that surprises
many consumers. Carbon-monoxide levels can be compounded with generator use
because the gas is especially heavy and tends to linger, making it difficult to
remove from an infected area."

ohh
my goodnessssssss....this is so not right.
THERE ARE GENERATORS that are quiet...the Honda 3000i is very quiet.
At CTR rides we just have the people who run them all night in on corner of the
field and the "others" who's sleep will get disturbed when hearing
a noise at night go the other direction.
Problem solved.
I for example have a CPAP machine . I can hardly breath at night without
it. So i do run a generator.
