Folks should be sure to shovel out their clothes dryer vent, which could not only cause exposure to the deadly gas, but could also start a fire. It’s also important to clear the tailpipe before allowing the vehicle to warm up, and make sure the generator is located outside, where the fumes won’t back up.
