gen exhaust weather station sensor proximity

gnicholson · 02-26-2019, 10:35 PM

hey guys i just spent all my money on a new intech trailer with 5500 watt built in gen. i guess nhra wants the exhaust to exit above the trailer on in trailer units. i was going to put my weather station pole on the front of the trailer which would only be about 6 to 7 ft away from the exhaust stack. depending on wind i could see gen exh screwing with weather station readings. any thoughts?

I would extend the height of my weather station sensor. The use of an exhaust extension is a good thing. I was in the stacking line at St. Louis last year and the guy parked next to me wasn't going to put his up just for the night. His exhaust made my CO detector go off in my trailer.

yes extend the hieght and maybe direct the exhaust with a tip angled to the back of the trailer is the only thing i can think of
