Generator
Clearance from windows,
doors, any openings in the
wall, shrubs or vegetation
over 12” in height
Clearance from the ends and front of the
generator should be 36 inches. This
would include shrubs, trees and any
kind of vegetation. Clearance at the top
should be a minimum of 48 inches from
any structure, overhang or projections
from the wall. The generator should not
be placed under a deck or other
structure that is closed in and would limit
or contain air flow.
These guidelines are based upon fire
testing of the generator enclosure and
the manufacturer’s requirement for air
flow for proper operation. Local codes
may be different and more restrictive
than what is described here.
