I've heard dual flush units are quite noisy. Any comments?

I have three, and they are probably quieter than the previous normal flush toilets which I replaced. I would imagine that the siphon jet dual flushes, however, are loud.

My two aren't noisy at all. They're substantially quieter than I expected. I sometimes check to be sure it flushed. Always does.

This model is as quiet or even less noisy than conventional units. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

I don't find it noisy at all and there is the added advantage that the flush cycle is so short---at least compared to my ancient toilets.

Iv'e had this toilet for six month and have only good things to say. It,s much quieter than the old 1.6 gal. flush I had. Flush works as describe; and all waste flushes with one flush. Best toilet Iv,e ever owned will replace my other toilets with a dual flush!!.

Just purchasing an item will not solve your problem. In order for me to answer your question I need to know a bit more about the flush issue.

When I installed two of these toilets in my home, I noticed that and commented on it in my Amazon review. Mine always flush everything with one flush, but I do have to clean my toilets more frequently now. You have bought a toilet that uses less water because of conservation. So I just keep a brush and cleaner beside my toilet and clean as necessary.

I have 2 units. One I bought about 20 yrs ago, the other in the past 6 months or so. Both vibrate (oscillate), Neither make a terrible loud noise. The older one is a little more quiet then the newer. Both are not annoying, but do make 'drumming' hum. I do not leave them plugged in, I empty the tank each time and dry it out. I also put a capful of mouthwash into it each time I use it. The new unit is equal to the old one, except maybe for build quality....it could be a perception thing. so far so good.

It definitely has a distinct, powerful sound when you flush but not that much louder that it would disturb anyone. I started with one and now I have them in all three of our bathrooms.I will never go back to the gravity type flushing systems unless they stop making power assisted flushers.

I have had no issues at all with these. I do not recommend flushing more than one at a time to be on the safe side.

We only recently began using our Shower panel and we've also heard a noise coming from the unit. I can't say whether or it's the temperature displaycausing this noise. The temperature display runs off of hydrostatic pressure and it could be that mechanism. Who knows - the noise isn't all that badhowever the overall jury is still out.

Hate to say sounds like something wrong. I get the idea. Mine isn't that loud, but there is like an air noise, but doesn't seem to be a bad noise. Or hum, like some I've heard. Mine is more just the "perk" noise.Did you buy it from here. How often used? I'd contact Hamilton beach and ask. Since Amazon is merely the holder, Beach should know more the personality of unit.

Mine is also TERRIBLY loud. It seriously sounds like a generator is going off in my bathroom. Is this a defective unit or a user error?

I installed the sink/faucet. They work very well. My wife and I HAVE NOT encountered any loud noises when turning the water on - in fact our faucet runs rather quietly. Has anyone encountered the sink not fitting flat, having a slight wobble/turn? Thanks

To me it sounds the same as most others, I mean its not really loud but its not quiet either IMHO, it maybe a little more quiet then most but if you are looking for something that barely has any noise I don't think this is it, but I tell you what its a great toilet tho, never gotten clogged or any problems. Hope that helps.

You can adjust from low (2500) to high (5000). I do not think the unit is noisy at all. I run it in my business and hardly notice it's on.

I'd say it is 1.5 time louder than an ordinary toilet. You should expect this though since this toilet uses pressure to assist the flushing action. I am very pleased with my rear flush. I would uses a regular bottom flush toilet where possible, however (a lot less $$)

We purchased our Waste King L-8000 on Amazon. The noise is low....like a humming. Of course, you can tell it is on. I suggest contacting your contractor. It should not be "dramatically loud." If it continues; contact Waste King, they have great service and I believe no cost to you.

The only noise I get is. The check value hammers when my electric sump stops. I know I can eleliminate that by by getting a di

I spoke to Watts about this issue. They said the noise is related to water passing through the membrane. I am still looking into it, but the noise is not constant in our case.
