Possible Causes

Blocked intake or exhaust louvers, Installation too close to walls or obstructions, Failed enclosure cooling fan (if equipped), Accumulated debris inside enclosure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Shut down the generator and allow it to cool before opening the enclosure.

  • Clear obstructions: Ensure that the All Power America generator has the minimum clearance from walls, shrubs, and other objects as specified in the installation manual.
  • Clean louvers and screens: Remove leaves, dust, and debris from intake and exhaust openings. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
  • Inspect internal fan: If your model has an electric enclosure fan, verify that it runs when the generator is operating. Replace the fan if it is seized or not powered.
  • Debris removal: Open the enclosure and remove any nests, paper, or other materials that could block airflow.
