Guest 33 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) I would really appreciate if anyone who has experience working with ASHPs could give the attached MP3 a listen to and provide any insights into why this unit is making this noise? This noise seems to occur at least once-twice per day. It can last from anywhere from 20-30mins to around an hour. In months passed, particularly in colder weather, this noise occurs a lot more frequently. Thank you, AN ashp_audio.mp3 Edited August 7, 2023 by FrustratedNeighbour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMo Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Not really closer what I'm hearing other than a bird. Is it before after or during the fan starting/stopping/running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 33 Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Thanks for quick reply. I've re-uploaded the mp3 that should have been selected first time round (also audio recording is not great, but hopefully conveys sound we're hearing, i.e. buzzing. Not in this recording, but we have heard it seeming to ramp up/down on occasion. It's unclear when this starts relative to when the fan starts - it's on the other side of fence to me (i.e. neighbours). Fan has never been noticeable to me, and reading through this forum I'm guessing that noise is coming from compressor?

RichardL Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 I hear a low hum, and lots of clicks (assuming the clicks are not what you're talking about) The low hum is presumably the machine working - I can't hear the compressor, that sound could well be the fan going?

HughF Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 All I hear is the rain lashing against a window/flat roof, and the hun of the heat pump doing it’s thing… I take it by your username that you find the noise of your neighbours heat pump to be annoying 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the noise of what it means to import 50% less gas from Putin, get used to it. Treat it like kids noise, be them yours or someone else's.
