Yes it is quiet. Never even heard it before the question was asked. It is a very quiet tick...not a click. You would have to have it located next to your pillow to even heard it tick.

It's a mechanical relay and makes a click, but it is not very loud. There are ssr "relays" available. Make sure to use a good heat sink if you need to switch any real current.

Can't offer a comparison to other fans, but there must be quieter ones out there because this one does make a lot of noise. You can clearly hear it from both inside the house and outside. It is significantly louder than the 20 yr. old fan it replaced, but I have a feeling it also has a higher rated capacity, because it does seem to move a lot of air. The only encouragement I can offer is that if you set the thermostat high enough, you could get it to turn itself off in the evening. Don't know what temp. that might be in your area: mine is set at about 105. Good luck.

I also have radiant floor heating with a gas furnace. This is the thermostat you want. There is a click, and it is audible in the room where it is located but not alarmingly so.

The higher you have the fan on, the louder it is, but it's not too bad. For your purposes the fan can stay on low keeping it as quiet as it's gonna get. I left mine up north because I'm back in Florida with wonderful central air, but I used to sleep with it a few feet away from me. As someone else has said, yes it has an automatic thermostat.

Jennifer, Yes it has a thermostat built in and it will turn off once the desired room temp is reached. The thermostat is in the knob tho, there's no temperature number setting like on your home central heat or AC. It's one of those deals where you have to guesstimate by using the knob. It's not hard to figure out once you use it a few times. One other thing to note is that there's a "burn off" smell that takes a few days of use to go away. The smell set off our smoke detectors and I was pretty worried. I called the company about it and they said that the new coating on it would eventually burn off and it did, but be prepared to endure smoke detector alerts if they're positioned near the heater. Our heater was hooked up by our gas company. If you're going to use natural gas, and your existing gas line, I highly recommend you contact your gas company vs. a private contractor.....for safety reasons and ability to hold someone responsible if there's a gas leak problem down the road. Good luck; I really like this heater.

As long as your system takes a mili-amp Thermostat it should work. As for quiet I don't even know when goes on or off. Mine is in in the living room, it might be heard if it was a night in a bedroom but there's no discernible sound

It depends on how you wire it. I have mine attached to a wall mounted on off switch. If it is hard wired without a intervening switch it will restart automatically and will suto shut off based on the thermostat. Because it needs to be mountef 6 plus feet from the floor I mounted mine off the ceiling. I did not want to use ladder to adjust thermostat so I put in on off switch.

it seems quiet , there is probably a little noise with the switching of the contact, but that is pretty quite , if you want something completely silent you would need a completely digital one, and even then you might hear the switching relay

I'm not an expert when it comes to electric but when the thermostat goes on and off to achieve the temp setting the baseboards will sometime make a clicking sound. This is normal (I beleive) due to the metals expanding and contracting. Hope this helps you.

I'd classify it as quiet on low fan speed, moderate on high. I have no problem sleeping with the unit in the bedroom on low, or on watching TV in the same room, etc. On high, it's pretty noticeable in the same room, but inaudible elsewhere in the house.

I have had no clicking problems with this thermostat. I never reprogrammed it. I change the setting with the arrows on the front panel. It holds that setting for three hours. Even when it comes on there is no noticeable click.

It is noisy like a small fan is noisy. Not sure why other people say it is quiet, because the heater I bought (and later returned) produced noise like a fan. It has a blower within the heater that pushes out the warm air. If you use it at night and you are accustomed to using a fan, the noise might not bother you. But, the orange light is really bright at night. My recommendation is to go to any local store that has a good return policy, buy a similar heater and try it for a few days. Then, you can return it if you like.

Sort of hard to say - since it's subjective. I keep mine outside my bedroom door - on the first speed - and it doesn't bother me at all. Sort of just a low fan sound - about the same as the heat kicking on and off. I don't notice it at all. However, all of the other speeds, in my opinion, are very loud. It goes up to 5 - and that sounds like a 747 idling. I guess if you had it in some remote location and wanted to crank it up, the higher speeds would work. I live in a 1200 sq ft townhome and, set at 45, it keep the upstairs (where it is) at about 45% and the downstairs at about 35%. Perfect for me. I'm really happy with it. No more shocking all the pets with static electricity! Sort of hard to say - since it's subjective. I keep mine outside my bedroom door - on the first speed - and it doesn't bother me at all.

I don't notice it cycling on and from the thermostat. It beeps quite loudly when adjusting settings but is pretty quiet when operating.

There is a fan and it is extremely quiet. The unit can be set to oscillate or operate in a stationary mode. It is quiet when operating either way. Please be aware that the size of your room to be heated is an important factor in determining your comfort.
