Where is the best place for roof noise reduction?
Where roof-transmitted sound reduction is most sought is in buildings located close to high noise areas such as under the flight path to airports. Our photo of metal roofed homes (left) shows two older houses in Key West, Florida.
What makes a metal roof noisier than a flatter roof?
The metal roof profile type may also affect the level of noise transmitted by the roof to the building interior. Raised profile metal roofs may be noisier than a flatter profile roof on the same building.
How to reduce noise transmission from the roof?
Install metal roofing over sound-absorbing foam insulating panels to reduce noise transmission through the roof to the building interior.
Why does my roof make noise when the temperature changes?
Because improper choice of fastener, improper fastener location, or improper number of fasteners may permit metal roof components to move in ways that increase the roof noise level during temperature changes, review the manufacturer’s specifications for your particular roof product to be sure that the roof was installed as recommended.

When does the AC stop making a noise?
On both occasions the AC was running fine all day, then about 930 or 10 PM it starts making this noise. In both cases it eventually stopped making the noises on its own. It makes the noise only while AC is running. Fan only is OK.
