Propane is way different than petroleum or diesel generators. Those can be safely run in occupied spaces with far less issues. That's why you see forklifts in warehouses running on propane, not diesel...

A gas/diesel genset in an enclosed space operated by a homeowner is a recipe for death, especially if that enclosed space has any ability to exchange air with a living space.
