    Noisy LG inverter



    I am comparing two SPLIT AC regarding their noise.

    The one I installed is working fine (not LG).

    The one the tech installed is a LG inverter 8500BTU (heat pump).

    Sometimes specially during night it does a sound like the motor of parked truck with engine slowly running.

    Is this normal behaviour of LG inverter, or may have happened something wrong with installation ?

    It's strange LG ads this equipaments as ultra-silent.

    most inverter splits sound like a bag of spanners at low frequency,if its within its decibel levels then assume its ok

    Re: Noisy LG inverter

    Read below my last post and think about it

    "Happy new year to all of you!!

    Recently,I faced a problem with an a/c split unit 12000 btu Morris that its compressor causes a lot of noise during the stage in which the circuit board reduces its speed.

    The unit is inverter and I suppose that due to non correct communication between outdoor circuit board and the compressor(probably error command of speed)the latter is very noisy; especially at the low level of speed.
    Any ideas?"

    typically a 3.5kw outdoor unit will emit up to 48-50db http://www.gcaudio.com/resources/howtos/loudness.html typical noise examples

    I think mine have this problem, it makes a LOT of noise, in heating it's even worse...the technician that came here said it was normal... how can I know if it has the wrong PCB?

    Thank you
