I have a bit of intolerance towards noise. How low can I put the volume down? I was looking at another sensor, at Home Depot, their unit chimes.

There is a Hi and Lo setting, I have it set on low, and sitting in the window behind the drapes, and it isn't that loud.

this one has a switch on the side for high and low volume. works pretty well

I put some tape over my speaker... It seemed to muffle it a little more... If low is still to loud for you. Placement of the receiver is also something to look at.. Maybe another room, or in a cabinet.

There ia a hi / low setting. Not a big fan of noise myself, bur this doesn't bother me.

Here is how I use it. Turn the devices volume just a little high. Use the volume control to turn it down to your liking. The range is enough to turn it down to FULL OFF, with no audio coming thru. I am glad I brought it.

Try turning the fan to a lower setting. To be honest with you, window units never bother me (noise-wise) You are never EVER going to find a super quiet window unit. But try turning the fan down from the HI setting.

I think it could reduce the noise a lot. The other morning I was sleeping wearing these ear plugs, and I guess someone just accidentally triggered the fire alarm in the building. Usually, one can hardly stand the extreme harsh sound if he stays in the room, but that day my first reaction was the alarm was not in my building.

the sound is very low- to check to see if it is working, I have to bend down and get ear close to the ground. You will never be bothered by the noise.

Your volume is not normal, ours is extremely loud. We keep it at low setting. I hope this helps.

I might be getting noise from having your settings too high. Try turning everything down all the way except the volume and see if it goes away

I don't know of a way, but I agree that it's not very loud. I suggest you set another timer with a louder beep as a backup!

Lately, I put it on the high setting when I am not home, and change it to low when I am home so it is quieter. I have not had it very long, so this may change.

Sounds like it's too much squelch. Turn it up until you have a constant static, then back it off until there's nothing. That's what we did and we don't have that problem.

That's the problem: there is no comfortable way to turn it off. You will have to grab the device and switch it off, which will certainly result in the alarm sounding. It's very loud (and you will be at ground zero), so definitely wear ear protection when turning it on or off. This is one of the main reasons why, in my review, I describe this device as impractical. This alarm is a nice concept, but just doesn't play out all that well in practice.

I had 2 of these. 1 was louder than the other on high setting, so I moved the quieter 1 to the bedroom. Overall not loud enough to bother me.

K. I got this for a second house. I haven't been there since installed, but my nephew is saying that it is loud. Reach out 2/1, and I will give you an update.

I agree that the sound level of the on/off or low battery tones are too loud and a little annoying, but I am not aware of any way to control the volume of these sounds. I believe the only volume control you have over the unit is with your smart phone or other BT device that you connect to the speaker.

First I own a pawnshop and am not an audio equipment dealer. Second, if others can hear what you are listening to with them, I suggest lowering the volume as you are probably damaging your hearing.

I have this purifier installed under my kitchen sink. I have to be standing in front of the sink and be closely listening to hear it. If you live in a totally silent house and you're super sensitive to noise, you've shot all the birds because their tweets are too loud. The wife knows to tip toe and speaks in a hush while the kids are certified in noise control (http://www.inceusa.org/about/boardcert). Then maybe...just maybe you'll be bothered by the whisper the system generates while refilling the tank. I am totally satisfied with it....
