not much. my sister's GE is very quiet, almost can't hear it working. |

make me sleep better. Plus it's not that cold anyway. |

powerful blower to compensate the turns in your design. Also smooth rigid
pipe is better than flex pipe of the same size. A remote (outside) mounted
blower is quieter than a indoor one. |

will start right away (no need to push a button and pull hard a few times

The short answer (given everything else being equal) contrary to popular
belief, is actually the AC that runs all the time to keep you just
comfortable. Which means, a 1 ton unit that runs 24 hours per day is going
to cost you less money in electricity to run, quieter, with better moisture
removal and less temperature fluctuations than a 2 ton unit that runs 12
hours per day, than |

equal to 12,000 BTU per hour, or 3517 watts.

发帖数: 848 | 13 What is PEX?
PEX is cross-linked polyethylene. Through one of several processes, links
between polyethylene molecules are formed to create bridges (thus the term "
cross-linked). This resulting material is more durable under temperature
extremes, chemical attack, and better resists creep deformation, making PEX
an excellent material for hot water and other applications.
How long has PEX been used?
PEX was developed in the 1960s. PEX tubing has been in use in many European

that it is expensive (over >$2K) and noisy.
If you don;t particular care of brand name or brand matching (if you also
have WOLF cooktop or overn), I would suggest you to get Kobe.
I have Kobe at home, it is equally powerful as the Wolf, but a lot quieter.
The price is also around $800 - $1K, much cheaper than the Wolf. Wolf is
made in the USA, while Kobe is made in Japan. |

central vac is also called built-in vac, it is an integral part of the house.
The main benefits are
- it lasts a long time - average 20 years or longer
- it has very high suction power, 3-5 times higher than portable vacs
- it vents dirty air directly to the outside; portable vacs recycles the air
back to your room
- it is easy to use, all you need to do is to carry a hose around.
- it can be much quieter because you can put your central vac unit in the
garage, far away from where you use it
