How far does a generator need to be from a house?

It is a requirement generator fuel tanks be at least 6 metres (19 ½ ft) metres away from any boundaries, houses, or buildings because generator fuel tanks are more than capable of carrying over 3,500 litres of flammable fuel. This is for the protection of life, property, and the environment.

Another standard of safety is that we ask our clients to remember to position their generator fuel tank so that the engine exhaust is directed away from the windows and doors of the house. Choosing a low-risk location (i.e. a place with limited water) is vital in not only keeping the environment safe but also keeping yourself safe from any accidents
