I guess the cost is a disincentive, esp. if it is only likely to be used once. I saw the units at Home Depot cost $800.<br /><br />FredFred S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00876388228644851726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3128482018906252196.post-48119958382518087802012-07-03T13:05:13.039-04:002012-07-03T13:05:13.039-04:00Early this am was walking around back of Block 2 a...Early this am was walking around back of Block 2 and noticed that some enterprising soul had a generator in the back yard. Nice idea, but WOW as that thing putting out some noise. When I heard it earlier at home on Block 1 thought RELAC was blowing up. Am sure the neighbors with all their open windows loved that. jim livingood Block 1Jim Livingoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09190608560030943168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3128482018906252196.post-83277069352924085332012-07-01T15:54:03.318-04:002012-07-01T15:54:03.318-04:00Hi,

Any brand new commercial unit the size of this one, that has one fan making this much noise is bound to be faulty - it vacillates too much to be operating normally. In any I felt the responsible thing to do was report it to the school while they still have contractors on site to deal with it. I sent the note to Sarah to post in case others were suddenly bothered by it and didn't know where it came from. One of the wonderful things about Reston and one of the only reasons I'm still a supporter of RELAC is because of the quiet the system affords us. If that's thrown away by loud units from the school or elsewhere, then I'm not going to be very happy paying the premiums we do for sub-par A/C.<br /><br />Cheers!<br />RaymondRaymond Merrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16840760551193343029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3128482018906252196.post-25438080213662766972012-06-22T05:02:26.506-04:002012-06-22T05:02:26.506-04:00Raymond,

It is not overwhelming, but is there. Not complaining, just an observation. Hope you can get your sitution resolved.<br />--jim livingood, Block 1Jim Livingoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09190608560030943168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3128482018906252196.post-13622089432983984742012-06-21T21:54:27.600-04:002012-06-21T21:54:27.600-04:00There was an article in the Post today about a two...There was an article in the Post today about a two year struggle about AC noise from an FBI building in Vienna VA. I dont know if there are any lessons for us from that ongoing neighborhood issue, but it is worth reading.<br /><br />http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/war-on-terror-creates-buzz/2012/06/21/gJQAF409sV_story.html<br /><br />GregGreg Gallardohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503155768748436351noreply@blogger.com
