Do you have a heat pump? Is it noisy? (lemmy.world)

Riffing off the earlier post about heat pumps in cold weather (https://lemmy.world/post/10270502), how much noise does your heat pump make?

We're sandwiched between houses with traditional AC units and in the summer the noise level from each is oppressive. Would I be producing the same amount of noise, year round, if I install a heat pump?

EDIT: the AC units to either side of us are old (at least 10 years) and probably cheaper models. Maybe newer/better ones are quieter?

Heatpumps are in par with AC. I'm noise sensitive dye to poor hearing and sometimes turn it off to help me hear better.
