I think too much is being made out of this. And I do not agree with SCVJEFF that heat pumps make more noise, UNLESS he was talking about the heat/pumps on the Winnebago motor homes that have the heat pumps on the bottom compartment under the bed. Those are noisy.
yep
If Heat Pumps make MORE noise, then what about the NOISE when on COOL mode???????????????????????? Doug
PS, EXACT same components are operating, just in reverse.
obviously exactly the same. But you already knew that. Why does it matter?
Because stating the NOISE is bad in cold weather, but NOT complaining about noise in hot weather does not make sense. Doug
PS this argument about noises is really STUPID, unless the appliance is having a problem. These are RV's for Gods Sake, Some want Noiseless RV'ing?????
I get it (and agree). But for for the OP's sake we are talking about things that make heat, not cold. And for the sake of heat related noise, a heat pump obviously qualifies into the discussion. IMO, if one doesn't like the noise.... cope or move.
I found that some Technicians discard the foam type insulation, around water heaters, because they think it is just packing material.
They did it to us and they some different foam insulation, apparently from another water heater. That foam insulation from the factory makes a very very huge difference.
The noise ,of the burners..... well, maybe they can vent it to the roof or into exhaust system of MH.
