What size of room is it good for? We have a large bedroom/bath combo. Does it make a fan-like noise?

I use mine in a 1000 Sq ft basement and it heats very nicely. it even heats well down a hallway and separate rooms (when I leave the doors open). it does make a fan noise, but it is extremely quiet.

It's not nearly as powerful. The sound would be too low for a big room or if a lot of people are there. I use it in the bathroom and it's perfect for that space. Or in a kitchen or bedroom it would be fine.

If it's a studio, yes. If it's a one bedroom, it will cool well the room it's in, and cool partially the other. It's about the same in my view. Three fan settings, each one progressively louder. So far I like mine and think it does a very good job. Third floor office, 500sf, computers buzzing and halogen lights warming. Room is hot as hades, but the unit makes it comfortable. I'd buy it again.

I bought this for my old employer and haven't seen this unit for a long time. I think it had a fan, but I'm not sure. I don't remember it being especially loud. But it was in a temperature-controlled closet with a lot of other equipment, so the whole closet had a bit of a fan-hum to it. Sorry I can't give you more information. Good luck in your purchase.

NO! I have installed this one in my shower room and after a while it produced weird loud noise that nothing could get rid off. So I think its not a proper fan for this type of use.

I have it in the bedroom, and I haven't had an issue with buzzing or any noise. And no I don't think it has a fan but I don't know

No, and no. It is very quiet. But this is a very small fan. It moves a nice amount of air for being so small. I needed one that would fit in a recess in the ceiling. It is perfect for where I needed to put it. I have this mounted where an old light fixture was. So, the old light switch is still there, though I don't usually use it. This switch should not affect whether or not it makes any noise. Only negatives: The light is NOT dimmable, and the housing is too small to insert a remote control. All my other fans are on remotes, which is very convenient

This is a great fan....very quiet, and does a super job of cooling.. But, for a really large room, you may also like having an oscillating fan, as well. It depends on the size of your room. I definitely love this fan, tho. It is very quiet and has a lot of power.

It's not whisper quiet. I have it in my living room and am able to hear it in my bedroom with the door open (not a huge house). We run it off and on throughout the day and continuously through the night. It doesn't make an annoying noise but it would say it is as loud as a box fan.

The fan is awesome for larger area, as the Deacon of my church this is why I purchased it and it has worked wonderfully and I was rather surprise that its not very loud at all and all three speed adjust very well according to the loudness which to me is very acceptable however I really don't know how it may sound in a close in area unless of course you have a rather large bedroom. I hope this will be of some help to you and Happy New Year and god luck.

Say a blow dyer on low. You can notice it but it is not like a bathroom fan it is whisper compared to that. If your in the same space as it it is like the blow dyer on low. Put a wall between yea and you don't hear it. makes it great for attic and crawl space.

I do not feel that it is any louder than other models. We have a really small bathroom and it is not an uncomfortable noise level at all.

For the size that it is, I think it is fairly loud. I use it for my excerise room and bathroom and it's loud enough that I can hear it clearly. The sound carries out well.

not too noisy at all.. It runs all night long in the bedroom.. soothing if anything!

Very little fan noise for the size of the unit... It's huge! A good sound system will absolutely cover any noise.

I can hear it in the bathroom right below the fan and in the hallway outside the bathroom. It is not a loud noise, but like a humming noise. I did not use any rubber pads to reduce the noise when attaching the fan to the wooden frame. That might reduce the noise further. Hope this helps.
