Gronk, there certainly is a way of making them quiet(er)..
Believe it or not, it's called a (ahem) "silencer"
like this one here >
Diesel Heater Silencer
Tiny little thing it is, but the difference with & without is chalk and cheese!
We have a Webasto in our ct, and exhaust noise is a non-issue.. Have to be standing right next to the thing to hear the faintest whisper.. The 'click' from the pump is much more noticeable..
What you would have been hearing from 20M away would most certainly have been unmuffled exhaust noise, and I can
well understand how it might be 'distracting' (to say the least) for a lot of folk..
Unfortunately, these mufflers are not included in the kit & have to be purchased separately (at least that was the case when we bought ours), so I guess a lot of folk don't bother with them .. many may not even be aware that they are available..
Looking at a few ebay listings (for Webasto), and it appears that nothing has changed re inclusion of a muffler in the kit.. IMO, they should be included!
Catch ya later.....
