Q13: How do I run my generator in the rain if I'm instructed to operate my generator outdoors, far away from occupied buildings with the exhaust pointed away from people and buildings?

A: With advance notice, you can place a protective Storm Shield Severe Weather Cover by GenTent® over your generator or inverter to prevent severe weather like rain or snow from affecting your unit while in operation outside.

As always, the generator or inverter should be on a flat, level surface in an open area, away from any windows or doors, and should have at least a five-foot radius of clearance all around it.

For standard portable generators of 3000-10,000 watts:

For inverter generators of 2000-3500 watts:
