Generator Enclosure
Complete enclosure for your
LARGE HIGH-CAPACITY portable generator
10,000 to 18,000 Watts
The new PowerShelter IV is designed to house your portable generator outdoors for both storage and operation. This product has some unique features that are not offered by anyone else. Overall dimensions are 112" L x 33" D x 34" H providing ample room for most LARGE portable generator sizes up to 18kW. Extra high capacity dual cooling fans positioned on both the intake and outlet provide the enhanced cooling and circulation required by these large generators. And the hoods come standard to reduce the possibility of rain entering the generator compartment due to the higher air velocity.
This is so much better than all those other schemes to protect your portable generator from bad weather, which is usually when you need it the most! No more struggling with trying to adapt a garden shed, or making a special removable roof, or even attempting to use a tent. The PowerShelter IV comes assembled ready to drop on your pad. Just attach the two hoods, connect your wiring, and you are ready to generate electricity even in bad weather.

DISCLAIMER
We have designed this product with safety in mind. However,
whenever fuel is used to operate an engine generator there is always a risk due to fire,
exhaust gases and electric shock. This enclosure will not completely eliminate those
risks. If a fire develops, metal enclosures such as this product will not contribute to the spread
of the fire.

product and use only as directed. We DO NOT recommend that this
kit be installed in any space that is part of a dwelling or attached to a
dwelling.
