This dehumidifier is very quiet for a dehumidifier. We have it running in our basement next to the bottom of the stairway, and you can barely hear it running from the top of the basement stairs. Granted, it does still make some noise, but it's a fairly low hum. I'd say maybe on a par with a fan on low speed. So unless you're a person who is sensitive to any noise, this should be quite acceptable. Regarding the heat, my unit has been running almost nonstop since the last major storm we had that flooded our basement (about a month ago), and it is cool to the touch on all sides. It blows air out the vent at the top, and that feels lukewarm at best, or just barely cool. Hope this helps!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It does not generate a lot of heat, in my opinion. Certainly not compared to the old style dehumidifier (30+ years old) it replaced. It is reasonably quite when the fan speed is set to normal (the default). It is noticeably noisier when the fan is set to high. I don't think it is too bad even on high, but it may be too loud when watching TV or talking on the phone.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Mine is fairly quiet but it has a high pitch whine which I have contacted Honeywell about. I do not know if they are going to fix this or what. The humidifier is in my basement so I only hear it when I am in the basement room with the humidifier. I do not think that it emits a lot of heat. So far it has done very well at taking water out of the air.
