How loud is the relay on this unit? (The Honeywell we want to replace awakens both us and our cats with a hard click whenever it kicks on or off.)

I have a Honeywell in my bedroom (new touch screen) and it's very loud. These are quieter. But I can still hear them when I'm across the room on the couch. Hope that helps

It is pretty quiet. I will not notice the kicking if I'm not standing in front of the unit.

I have two units; one for heat and one for the AC. Only the one for the AC clicks on and off. The manufacturer offered to replace it, but then said that 50% of them make that noise. Of course, the AC hasn't been on in months (I live in PA), but I actually think that either it stopped the clicking, or I got used to it and totally ignored it. I actually had two Honeywells for years that were totally quite, but they became inaccurate and shut the heat and AC on and off, and that noise was louder than the clicking. Ya can't always get what you want.

We actually haven't changed our old one out yet. We currently have an older model Lux and it has a definite click but it doesn't wake us up at night. Hope this helps.

This heater is very quiet but does make a clicking noise when it cycles on and off. I am a lite sleeper but after a little while I didn't even notice the noise. I hope this helps.

It's def louder than a portable generator. If you start it up and don't hear it, you better go check on it. Having said that tho, I don't mean to say that it is distractingly noisy, just that you're going to hear it running.

Yes, it makes a click when turning on and off. Unfortunately they all do (all 3 that I have used so far). The click is about as loud as an electronic cigarette lighter behind the cover.

I cant answer that. I'm still waiting on electrician to hook it up. I have it running, but not wired to service panel yet. my only opinion so far is it is much noisier than I was expecting. I'm concerned about that with city noise ordinance.overall, I believe it is a good value.

I do NOT know why they requested I answer this question for you. I however have not had any motor trouble. Mine every once in a while will vibrate way to loud. But I don't run mine 247. I keep it off most days. It's on to allow the cat's or the kids that are over here to have a little fun & watch it but other than that I don't keep it on 247 it makes more noise than I prefer. I hope you are able to get your motor fixed.

There should be an audible click, easy to hear when you program the unit. Check out the light bulb as well.

I don't think it's loud at all. I've had it running 24/7 in my bedroom since I got it and it's pretty quiet. It's about the same noise as a window a/c or quieter. Hope that helps!

Yes, there is a little bit of a "click" sound when you manually turn it off and on, but nothing that should wake your baby up! I was able to edit my review to include a video where I turned it on and off a few times.

It's pretty noisy on third setting. I use that for white noise to drown out the cats playing at night. It depends however, you might be able to find a louder one for your needs.

I haven't ever really noticed mine when it kicks on. It is definitely quieter than my refrigerator and my dishwasher.

It's pretty loud. I can hear it in other rooms as long as there is no real loud back round noise. It beeps for a pretty good while, but not in defitnilty. I was looking for a timer that was close to the one from Pampered Chef. This was as close as I could get. This one though is louder. Hope this helps!

this is the only unit i have ever had so it is hard for me to say. it is not loud, but you can tell it is on. the higher the setting the louder it is, but it is not annoyingly loud. sorry i could not be more helpful!

It is loud but not so you can hear it on a different floor. If it was that loud I would not want it. When I go to an area that is far away I TAKE IT WITH ME TO THAT AREA. The unit is light so there is no problem. It beeps for about 30 seconds before it shuts off.

The transformer is not noisy. I leave it plugged in all day. It does not get too hot. BUT, it has started to make a noise every time the thermostat turns it on and off, after a couple of months of use. It's like a weird "beep" sound. I don't like that. Apart from that it works well.

It is not too bad from a noise perspective. Mine runs in the basement almost constantly and is OK. If you spend a lot of time next to it the noise could be of concern. The unit is energy start rated but my electrical consumption has significantly jumped this year. Mainly because I have the drain hose connected to it so it runs much more than my old unit where I would forget to empty the bucket on a regular basis.

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.
