• Place the standby generator in a prepared location
that is flat and has provisions for water drainage.
• Install the standby generator in a location where
sump pump discharge, rain gutter down spouts, roof
run-off, landscape irrigation, or water sprinklers will
not flood the unit or spray the enclosure and enter
any air inlet or outlet openings.
• Install the standby generator where it will not
affect or obstruct any services (including covered,
concealed and underground), such as telephone,
electric, fuel (natural gas / LPG vapor), irrigation, air
conditioning, cable, septic, sewer, well and so forth.
