I have put a dehumidifier in my basement to take some of the dampness out
of the air. The problem is I can only run it during the day because my
daughter's bedroom is in the basement and the dehumidifier is really noisy.
Does anyone have a creative idea for quietening it down? (It's already on a
carpet). Thanks.


Build a plywood box around it. Line the box with carpet or some other soft
material. Leave a few decent sized (3" ?) holes in the box to provide
airflow.
