Those are actually called "rain caps" for a reason. If you are prone to
snow, your better off with a exhaust pipe Thimble system such as this:

[WISPA] something to watch out for with genset

2011-01-10 Thread Marco Coelho
Since the weather had turned nasty here in Texas, I thought I'd test out the
Generator to ensure it would do it's job.  It fired up just fine, but one of
the exhaust flaps that keep water out of the exhaust had frozen shut with a
large clump of ice on top to boot (counter weight).  This would have
eventually fouled the plugs on one side had I not checked.  Running for 5
minutes did not clear it.

Yet something else for us to look for.
