Good Morning from Texas! I purchased a new duplex home in the summer of 2016, for family use, though I do not live in it full time. Normally, I live in Switzerland .
From the beginning, my daughter and I noticed a high frequency sound, which we tried to identify by process of elimination. Unfortunately, it still has not been identified and it is almost two years.
Since I only visit occasionally, I honestly forget about this issue. Yet, each time I am here, I am bothered by the sound. It is quite disturbing and ruins the pleasure by such a lovely place.
During the first year, whilst under warranty, we complained to the builder who diligently sent electricians to investigate the noise. No one else could hear it, though coming from the street it seems very quiet inside. I think they thought we were crazy! Yet, once alone and quiet, the sound is penetrating, almost painful.
Since I am currently in the house, I face this situation again and would be most grateful if someone who help us. I did not realize this forum is from the UK, but I suppose you might have a more objective opinion about American construction.
Is the a measurement device which we could use to identify the source?
Kind regards and greetings from Texas.
