Love it! But is there any way to get the whistling noise to stop?

No whistling noise on mine. I'm guessing you have one that may be defective. If you used the washer that came with it, I'd try pulling that out first.

I've never had a whistling noise in any of my Siroflex heads. Maybe it's pressure created that's affecting the pipes?

I am wondering the same thing, I don't think it is possible to stop it. i will be sending it back because of this unless someone has a solution. My family is ready to kill me, the stereo is always on and every time I walk upstairs or back, or drive away or come back home my phone automatically connects and it makes the loud noise through the stereo.

I've also had this issue...it's very annoying, those loud beeps as soon as you turn it on. I'd love to know if this can be remedied as well!

Mine certainly does not have a high pitched shrill whistle. I am not sue if that is how it supposed to be though

That tells you it needs recharging. The only thing we have found to keep it from making the sharp keening noise is to set a time between each recharge and hopefully catch it before it goes off! Set you a time limit, we do 2 months, and then we automatically plug it in to recharge to keep it from screaming at us! :) Hope this has helped you out....no way to turn it off, except to recharge immediately!

There is a switch on the bottom to turn off the sound. It does get annoying!

No, there is no option to silence the music. You seldom notice it after the first thousand times. The usefulness of the boiler far outweighs the short sound. If mine stopped working, I would immediately buy another.

No. When the air comes through it, it kind of whistles. It's annoying. I never used it because of the noise.

Yes, I can hear it when I am outside the car. But it is not int the 'piercing' range of human hearing, and it is not particularly annoying. My dogs clearly hear the alert, but they are used to it and it they respond to the sound without fear or frantic behavior. We have a switch on the dash to keep its use to a minimum. It is not a whistling sound at any time! It is a combined high pitched reverb with soft undertones of rattling. We like them well enough to now have THREE installed.

Mine is noisy too, a high pitch whirring sound. I wondered if mine was broken as well but it has great suction so I think it's suppose to sound like that :)

NO it does not whistle. However it is so beautiful you won't be able to keep your eyes off of it.

I seem to recall you can through the menu. If I get a moment I'll check it out but there was an option,I think, that allows you to turn off the sound. I thought of turning mine off but decided to leave it on so that I know it's working.

Yes, a very loud whistle is created by a "ball and valve" system in the spout. When you pick up the kettle, it should have a bit of a rattle which is that little ball jiggling. You will love this kettle!!!

There is a piece near the end of the hose that you can turn. There is a hole under that piece, if you turn it so that hole is open, the loud piercing noise should stop.

yes, every time followed by the # sign. there is an option to "silence" the noise if u need that. hope it helps!

A little bit of a low whistling sound when running, and occational clicking. You can barely here though over the sound of the running water. Totally happy with the change, but haven't lost any power yet.That may be a problem if it happens.

The kettle does not whistle. The boiling is very vigorous on the high setting, but if I am two rooms away, I cannot hear it shut off.
