A heat pump is just an air conditioner that can be run in reverse. Replacing your air conditioner might help if it makes the noise because it's old and broken, but if you just really dislike the sound of an air conditioner it probably won't help much.
- modeless 3y agoMaybe one of the new variable speed ones would help?
- ericd 3y agoThe variable speed inverter ones tend to be much quieter than the old single-stage ones that most people have, fwiw.
- lolinder 3y agoAh, right! I actually have a variable stage regular AC unit, so that's not a benefit unique to heat pumps, that's something you can get by replacing your AC unit in general.
