Power and energy efficiency—especially speed of cooling—are probably the most crucial factors when you’re choosing an air conditioner system for your home. However, since we’re dealing with a person’s personal space in the home, these are not the only factors to be considered. When considering the silent central air conditioner, it’s important to remember that While all central air conditioners will produce sound, the best ones would never be guilty of anything as annoying as noise. The quietest ones on the market should barely be noticeable, and there are some machines listed here from LG and the ductless split technology advanced by GREE Electric Appliances Inc, that are no louder than the ticking of a wall-clock.

1. Silent Central Air Conditioner Review – LG LS120HSV4

3. Silent Central Air Conditioner Review – GREE Sapphire 18HP 230V

While this is not the quietest machine in the Sapphire series developed by the ductless split AC systems developed by GREE (that distinction belongs to the SAP09HP230V1A which produces just 19-45 dBA), the 18HP 230V Sapphire Series model operates in a very respectable range of 34-51dBA indoors.

4. Silent Central Air Conditioner Review – GREE Crown+ 9HP 230V

This is another silent centre air conditioner product from GREE that can hardly be ignored, as it operates in a range of just 22-41dBA. This is another of the products that the AC firm has proudly flagged as whisper-quiet, and really, it’s difficult to take issue with the claim.

5. Silent Central Air Conditioner Review – GREE Terra 9HP 230V

GREE’s ductless mini-split systems are among the quietest cooling and heating solutions, and this is the quietest operator in the company’s Terra series, a 9HP 230V model that murmurs along at an unobtrusive 24-42dBA. Once again, this is not a range that is going to intrude on the activities of an average household.

8. Silent Central Air Conditioner Review – Goodman Air Conditioner

Moving up into another dBA bracket, the Goodman GSX160361 generates just 73 dBa of noise, making it an ideal generator for home use, or in any environment where noise levels can really make a difference, such as a small office for example. It’s also compact and highly energy-efficient, able to powerfully cool medium to larger rooms, with its chlorine0-free liquid refrigerant keeping the atmosphere free of any ozone-damaging elements.

Only slightly louder than the Goodman GSX160361 comes the Bryant Legacy 4-Ton, a powerful unit that emits 75 dBA during operation. Like the Goodman, this is another of the most highly energy-efficient air conditioner models on the market. It has a two-ton condensing unit and is Energy Star rated, and uses 410-A refrigerant. The noise insulation of the unit is one of its most striking features. This machine has a manufacturer’s warranty that is valid when registered to the homeowner, and installed by a licensed HVAC professional.
