We live in an old three storey houses built in the 1960’s. Both adjoining properties have been heavily modified wooden floorboards, new ceiling etc. The new neighbour, himself (normal engineer) has replaced and installed a new central heating, possibly moving the boiler into the household. The other neighbour has installed a shower system downstairs. Also we’ve had a replacement conventional boiler tank installed after a leak and Magnaclean filter re-installed by Gas Safe Engineers. It is off currently, except when we top up water.
The problem started initially a few months back, with low frequency humming noise reverberating through the property at set times at night, keeping us awake. Recently though this has worsened as the low frequency audible noise is now accompanied by unbearable vibrations going through the floors, ceilings, walls of our property. It feels like it’s continuously on, topping up, if and when required. So when it’s cold the property vibrates in the morning, but night time the noise, pressure and vibrations gradually worsen to become unbearably loud, and intense. As it affects all our floors, downstairs and up, we don’t know what is exactly is the cause. Have you any ideas or possibilities what is a possible cause, and solution?
If you could please help us it would be appreciated. Is there a way to track the vibration down as well? We don’t mind calling in experienced tradesmen and skilled professionals but which one?
Thank You for your help.
