Hi Littleinch. Thanks for the response. Yea there is a train yard 1.6 miles away. I have been down this route and have been in communications with the company as well. I have driven there at all hours of the night. I do not hear or feel the same noise as I did at Flat Rock Metal. I can...
All, I was able to obtain the plans for the water supply/pipes for my neighborhood. Please see attached. My lot number is #27195 which is situated at the bottom center of the area. What I find interesting is that the noise/vibration is the strongest on the south and west side of my home. As...
@r13: interesting read and I have done a bit of reading on infrasound since this has started. I agree with everyone that this is a very low frequency. I noticed this post on another forum I came across when reading about infrasound. It sounds very similar to what I’m experiencing, including...
@OG:Thanks again. Have reached out to local clubs. Also, going to test out the support post to see if I see any changes.
@Littleinch: Thank you for weighing in as well. I started logging this issue approximately 1 year ago. Haven’t been able to determine a pattern. Was traveling frequently...
@oldestguy. Thanks for the recommendation. Will be moving forward with purchasing used equipment or renting.
Appreciate all the feedback and suggestions, everyone.
Hi @MikeHalloran, I’ve gone as far as adding blocking between the joists under the utility room and have added anti vibration pads under each of the dryer legs. I will try to add some weight to see if it reduces the noise in the other room. Thanks for the reply!
Hi @CarlB, Thank you for the reply. I checked out the link you sent over and I found the following to be very similar to my experience. The noise seems to be louder closer to the inside wall of my bedroom. There have been some nights where I will sleep with my head at the foot of the bed as...
@oldestguy - I am within a mile from a metal stamping facility. I also went down this route and my emails and requests were dismissed. They told me they don’t have complaints and one of their employees lives near me and doesn’t hear a thing. Also I was told what I am probably hearing is the...
Hi Joel,
Thank you for the reply and recommendation. I have shut off all electricity and water to the house. The HVAC is in the basement and the noise is present without electricity.
The noise/vibrations in home come and go. It’s always several hours or days and days. I agree that it is a low frequency. I have read articles regarding lift stations for water treatment facilities however mu local water department doesn’t have qualified staff. They showed up to my home on a...
I have used a vibration app on my phone and this is a screenshot. Besides the source of the noise. I have shut off all utilities and the vibration is still present.
I feel like whatever is wrong with the house is contributing to the vibrations/noises caused by an outside factor. And I...
Hello,
I live in a 6 year old home that is wood frame 2x4 construction with mostly brick on the exterior. Base grade windows throughout which were poorly installed 18 months after the house was built there were 1/4 gaps around all of the windows that needed to be filled with caulk on the...
