Attic Ac Unit Vibration
The central air conditioner is by far the nosiest i have ever heard.
Attic ac unit vibration. I noticed a sound and it took some time to locate it. Buy four vibration pads one for each corner of the unit. Measure and make a note of the width and length of the base of ac. My bed is near the wall and when i put my ear on the wall i hear the sound created by the slightly vibrating or normal operation of the unit.
Bryant has changed the unit and this second unit is just as nosier. Assuming this vibration noise occurs only when the a c is running which should be real easy to check out and you cannot find loose mounting bolts or loose metal ducting thgat is vibrating then you should not quit using the unit and call a heating and a c tech to check it out. High efficiency ac units incorporate sound dampening technology and two stage variable speed compressors to keep noise levels below 55 decibels. The ground around the outside unit actually shakes.
Here are some simple troubleshooting steps to fix vibration pads for removing vibration noise from air conditioning units that are roof mounted. In addition to making the unit hard to get to for service high attic heat can trigger the high pressure limit switch turning your condenser off. Switch off the power supply. Climb up using a ladder and find the ac on the roof.
The vibration can be heard inside and outside. My old 28 years old unit made half the noise and had no vibration.
