Dryer Vent Noise

Sep 01, 2006 6 Replies

My neighbor's exterior dryer vent (about 30 yards from my deck) is making a lot of noise. Any suggestions (either at his end or at mine) to reduce the noise? I don't want to go to him with a complaint. I'd like to go with a solution.

You could offer to duct it up the wall. If it's pointing at you, it'll be louder.

it's annoying him too, buy him an energy saving replacement vent.

Are you sure it isn't his water heater? The modern high efficient ones make a lot of noise. They don't exhaust up a chimney. The exhaust goes out the side of the house.

any chance its a lennox pulse furnace? they are known far and wide for being very noisey:(

Go over at night and shoot it full of spray foam would probably take care of it...from you POV anyway :-)
