I usually have electrics at the shows I take the GMC to, so the Generac genset doesn't bother me much - unreliable though it seems to be. But, I signed for one the other day, and the RV listing says self - contained and generators must have an exhaust above the roofline. I priced the commercial ones, and put one together out of PVC pipe and fittings. It seems to work quite well. I took photos of it, and tried to upload them to the GMC photo site. I gave it up after an hour of watching, waiting, and no action. It managed to produce ten thumbnails from 14 pictures, but posted none to the album.
If anybody knows how to make the upload software work, I'll send you the pics and you upload them. Meantime, if your generator exhausts under the rear of the coach, it's fairly easy to make a PVC venturi setup which will take the exhaust up as high as you like. It sits and clips, no need to punch holes in anything. Comes apart into two pieces of pipe - one four inch with fittings and one two inch which slips inside the four inch, which you can bungee to the roof rail or side awning cannister for travelling.
