Exhaust louvers for generator room

What are generator louvers?

Generator louvers help solve both airflow issues, allowing warm air and exhaust to escape while allowing fresh, cool air to enter. Hercules Custom Louvers is able to design and fabricate custom generator louvers in our state-of-the-art facility just outside of Washington DC.

Can louvers be used to cover air openings?

When louvers, screening or expanded metal are used to cover air openings in buildings housing generators, consideration must be given that these materials do not restrict the free flow of cooling air. Any restriction must be compensated for by making the actual opening size proportionately larger.

How do you vent a generator?

Ventilation is typically done through the use of an air inlet, air outlet/exhaust fan, and/or other ventilation openings. When ever possible, face the generator air inlet openings away from the wind. The wind can prevent the air intake louver from opening on start up.
