Good Afternoon! After the storms came through, many are still without power which we can sympathize with. However, it is vitally important for the safety of you and your families that if you choose to run a generator, you use it properly. We have run multiple calls for Carbon Monoxide in residences today, and have listenened to many many calls throughout the county come in today for it as well.
Do not run a generator indoors ever, for any reason. Generators should be kept 20' away from any doors/windows/vents/exhausts.
CO is the silent killer, please follow manufacturer recommendations for your generator. If you have a whole house generator, they also can cause these same issues. Ensure you have working alarms.
