But one of the most critical and often overlooked elements is the generator exhaust system. A poorly routed or improperly installed exhaust can lead to serious issues: carbon monoxide intrusion, overheating, excessive noise, and even equipment failure. . Generator exhaust system designs are sometimes vague, with some critical details left for equipment suppliers to define based on very limited knowledge of the project's design criteria. A suitable muffler must be included in the exhaust line. The elevated temperature results in increased internal resistance within generator components and modification in the viscosity and composition of. .
