A:Answer Hello - at it's highest setting (Power Cool), this fan is 53 dBA. This fan has 7 other cooling levels, so there may be another setting that best meets your sound and cooling needs. Unfortunately, most fans do not list the sound levels for each setting, so this makes comparing models difficult. If you have any further questions, please reach out to us at SocialSupport@HelenofTroy.com and we will be happy to assist you. Thank you.
