I'm getting a low volume hum in my house. It comes and goes. It's not
loud, but it is annoying. When it is humming, I can hear it all over the
house. I can also hear it in my attached unheated
garage. My wife can hear it also. I have been unable to pin point the
source. Anyone ever experience this? Any ideas what it can be?

Any correlation with furnace activity?

I've heard some irritating sounds from a high-efficiency furnace.

Turn off the main braler and see if it goes away. If not it is
e3xternal resonance from something.

The "most distinctive" hum in my house is caused by the sump pump
(centered under the house). It's annoying-ness is somewhat
counterbalanced by the fact that I know that its working. ; )

Surely something that important must have a warning light etc in the house?

I had this with a toilet. Every time I flushed, I would get the hum which lasted
about 30 seconds. How long does your hum last?

Hummers can last a long time and then it stops.
