Noisy reefers

You just have to use to them. Then you won't wake up. My truck engine starts up and stop by computer at night for heat or a/c or battery charging.

 

Get used to it. That's trucking and there are a lot of reefers out here. If you can't get used to it, find a different line of work.

 

Reefer don't bother me
parking stupid does!

 

I put loose nuts and bolts on the (metal) floor of the engine compartment so it makes as much noise as possible when it fires up every 20 minutes.

I have a carrier unit, of course.

 

Old Units are more noisy , they don't care as much about noise levels.

The new units are very quiet... Like 1/4 the noise or less.

 

Invest in a pair of good earplugs

 

Actually, the 2018 model Carrier units have a deeper low frequency noise that is worse than units of years prior. In some ways, Carrier units get noisier now with each new year. Sad. I hate Carrier units but our fleet is 100% Carrier. I prefer the older trailers over the brand new ones as far as noise goes. Heat mode is the worst.

 

We have some older units that are surprisingly quieter than some of the newer ones.
