Yes. Ron Tase in our club created an aluminum vent that fits (with
screws) on the
bottom of the Onan (6k) blower and bends to exhaust out the side of
the door.
The exit comes through the small curve at the bottom edge of the gen
set door.
You use the same screen from the bottom Onan vent to finish the end of
the new side
vent. Ron has made them available to several of the GMC shops places.
I got mine from
Alex, install is fairly simple, and after painting flat black, the
finished look is real nice.
AND no more clouds of dust - AND better heat exhaust also when
standing still.
