ICYMI: The Portable Generator Manufacturers’ Assn. (PGMA) has shared testimony with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), voicing concerns over the agency’s newly proposed rule that would further impose additional CO emissions requirements on portable generators. PGMA strongly opposes such measures, since such changes would put consumers at risk of unintended safety hazards, such as fires and unavailability of product. Testing concludes that the CPSC’s rule changes could force portable generators’ exhaust temperatures to exceed 1000° Fahrenheit—extreme temperatures that would likely cause house fires and threaten owners’ safety.
