New furnace blower noise problem
I have a very similar situation. The noise occurs while the furnace
is running (the noise of a fan sucking air though the intake vents).
I have a Carrier furnace unit situated in a corner wall, which faces
the kitchen/family room. There are air-intake vents on either side of
the corner. The fan from the unit creates excessive noise (in the
kitchen and family room) when it is running.

Is it just at startup or all the time? One of my 3 gas furnaces was
very loud at startup. I thought it was the attic one and it was just
noise going thru the sheetrock ceiling and nothing could be done..
After 2 years of that, I'm in the basement and the noisy one starts
off like a roar. Turned out the source was the basement and the gas
pipe was close to a PVC exhaust pipe and that vibrated against the PVC
when the thing started up creating a roar throughout the house. A
sponge between the 2 solved the problem forever.

Hello -
I just had a new furnace installed. The blower is horribly loud.
There is
no way that I can live with this noise, but the installer said
that's how
all of the high-efficiency furnaces are now. I really don't believe
anyone
would put up with this.
Is there anything that can be done to reduce the blower noise on a
furnace?
Assuming that it was installed correctly, that is. I wasn't able to
find
much in a google search of groups.
Thanks for any info -
