Personal pet level is that it’s so hard to get information on the noise level of appliances. We’ve recently moved, and our new house’s crawl space has a Santa Fe dehumidifier in it that seems SO LOUD at night. I don’t think it’s broken - it’s just a compressor and fan with no engineering put into keeping them quiet. If I could get one that was as efficient and well built, but I knew would be quiet, I’d replace it in a heartbeat - but manufacturers don’t advertise noise levels. Surely I can’t be the only one who’d pay substantially more for an appliance that was guaranteed to be quiet? |

It's super easy if you live in the European Union, thanks to the Energy Label [1] which is mandatory on every appliance.
