Running a generator in an enclosed space is never a good idea.


Hmmm. What about the hundreds of thousands of boats that have diesel
generators in their bilges?


Marine generators installed in the bilge have there exhaust vented
overboard as you well know.

A generator running in a shed, barn or other enclosed space can easily
accumulate dangerous levels of CO.
