Generator enclosure
A generator enclosure includes a door frame and an enclosure panel with integrated flashing having a first vertical portion, a second vertical portion, and a horizontal portion extending from the first vertical portion to the second vertical portion. The horizontal portion may abut the door frame and the second vertical portion may extend below a top portion of the door frame.
1 . A generator enclosure for an engine-generator, the generator enclosure comprising:
a door frame; and
an enclosure panel with unitary formed flashing having a first vertical portion, a second vertical portion, and a horizontal portion extending from the first vertical portion to the second vertical portion, wherein the horizontal portion abuts the door frame, and the second vertical portion extends from a top portion of the door frame.
2 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , further comprising:
a foam tape coupled to the enclosure panel with integrated flashing.
3 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , further comprising:
a plurality of adjacent panels, wherein at least one of the plurality of adjacent panels is adjacent to the door frame and the enclosure panel with integrated flashing.
4 . The generator enclosure of claim 3 , wherein the enclosure panel with integrated flashing overlaps the at least one of the plurality of adjacent panels.
5 . The generator enclosure of claim 3 , further comprising:
a first piece of foam tape coupled to the enclosure panel with integrated flashing and a second piece of foam tape coupled to the at least one of the plurality of adjacent panels.
6 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , wherein a length of the first vertical portion is longer than a sum of a length of the horizontal portion and a length of the second vertical portion.
7 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , wherein the second vertical portion abuts the door frame.
8 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , wherein an angle measured from a horizontal plane as a positive angle of the horizontal portion above the horizontal plane as the horizontal portion meets the first vertical portion is greater than 0 degrees.
9 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , wherein an angle measured from a horizontal plane as a positive angle of the horizontal portion above the horizontal plane as the horizontal portion meets the first vertical portion is in a range of five degrees to 20 degrees.
10 . The generator enclosure of claim 1 , further comprising:
a foam tape coupled to a bottom surface of the horizontal portion.
11 . A generator enclosure for engine-generator, the generator enclosure comprising:
a supporting frame including a plurality of vertical columns, a plurality of horizontal beams, and a door frame; and
an enclosure panel with unitary formed flashing having a first vertical portion, a second vertical portion, and a horizontal portion extending from the first vertical portion to the second vertical portion, wherein the horizontal portion abuts the door frame and the second vertical portion extends from a top portion of the door frame.
12 . The generator enclosure of claim 11 , wherein at least one of the plurality of vertical columns is parallel to the first vertical portion of the enclosure panel with integrated flashing and extends behind the enclosure panel with integrated flashing and the door frame.
13 . The generator enclosure of claim 11 , further comprising:
a plurality of adjacent panels, wherein at least one of the plurality of adjacent panels is adjacent to the door frame and the enclosure panel with integrated flashing.
14 . The generator enclosure of claim 13 , wherein the enclosure panel with integrated flashing overlaps the at least one of the plurality of adjacent panels.
15 . The generator enclosure of claim 14 , further comprising:
a first piece of foam tape coupling one of the plurality of adjacent panels to one of the plurality of vertical columns; and
a second piece of foam tape coupling the enclosure panel with integrated flashing to at least one of one of the plurality of adjacent panels and one of the plurality of vertical columns.
