I can’t see this machine to be able to describe it. ft. range, depending on the product, dimensions, and options.This is a question more than a comment. Mark the center of the window opening you’re going to use, making sure it is close to an electrical outlet. Summer is coming so I was excited to host some get-togethers out there, only problem is the SUPER noisy ac/heat air compressor or something. I have a compressor unit right outside my bedroom window, about a foot from the exterior wall.
It works great for your generator as well. We can hardly hear it, but our neighbors are finding it a nuisance at night. It was impressive and used some very sensitive equipment to measure db’s and frequencies. An investigation may show that there is a coolant leak, or possibly the filter or condenser coils need to be cleaned.Humming is a normal electric sound but may indicate vibrating of the refrigerant coils that can lead to bigger issues.
I’m sorry, but you are likely going to need to have someone there to see and hear the problem.Ted, you have some wonderful insights that are a great help to us folks who are trying to deal with these annoying situations. There could be a stick or leaf stuck rubbing against something. “everyone” keeps telling her it will block the air flow and raise her electric bill. If you can imagine the top of a back-stop for a baseball field, that is the type of overhang I am talking about.We have two different products that can be used outdoors to treat the inside of the enclosure – both of which need some kind of substrate to attach to. When you must work on the unit while it operates, avoid spinning fan blades. Thanks for any ideas.You are likely going to need to build some kind of enclosure around the pump — making the walls and ceiling as dense and heavy as possible. If so, just bend them back so that they match the others. heat pump). The problem has not been resolved, so I’m looking for ideas to contain the sound. Do you know of anyone in the Philadelphia area I could ask to take a look at my situation?
You provided some measurements, but you did not explain what it was you were measuring.If you can SEE the air compressor, you will be able to hear it. Trying to figure out How to reduce air conditioner noise depends partially on the model and how it is mounted in the window. Most window air conditioner units produce minimal noise compared to the usual portable air conditioners. Thanks,Hi Ted, I live on the top floor of this rental apartment in Burbank, CA. It sounds like a small airplane! The fan noise as well as the noise that occurs when the unit kicks on or off is particularly loud even with my window closed. Digital pictures also help with that, and if you could send me a bit of information about the nature of the problem and details about the situation, that will also help.Hi Ted, I hope that you’re doing fine. Any ideas?Good morning and thank you for the post. The location means it is closer and more directly part of the living area, so any noises it produces will be more disruptive.All A/C units make noise. The best way to quiet a noisy window air conditioner is through regular maintenance, ensuring the unit is properly secured, and any loose parts are tightened. Once that is determined, you can either build, or have a local company build a wooden fence around the machine outside. I’ve tried to address a variety of noises or pitches a window A/C can emit. I find the pump noise very hard to take.
