Thinking of replacing oil boiler in garage with a gas combined in the airing cupboard. The airing cupboard is in the middle of the house up stairs and I was wondering how noisy are they in operation as two bedrooms are beside the airing cupboard.
Ours is in the airing cupboard and we barely hear it in the bathroom and certainly not in any of the adjacent rooms.

My bed headboard would be the other side of the brick wall of the airing cupboard the other walls are plasterboard.
My place is a bungalow the other side of the block wall that the boiler is on is the lounge and I can never hear it. On the bathroom side there is just a thin veneered chipboard door and you can just about hear the boiler fire up.

I could hear the little whumph when it started up, but less noisy than my mother snoring like a piglet through two block walls.

boilers will be quieter on a solid brick wall than on a stud partition wall as the wood studs and plasterboard vibrate in sympathy with the boiler...........
On our WB the fan noise is rather high pitched. Got on our nerves to start with but we got used to it. Don't think I'd want to be sleeping near it though
