Well, the fact that these portable devices make loud but calming noise when on is how they help.
I can not stand my neighbors where I live. They actually just moved in. The neighbors before them were wonderful, but they moved to get a job promotion. But these new neighbors are not only rude, but they are noisy as ever and they have a dog that won’t ever shut up! This goes on at all hours of the day and night. When I am trying to sleep sometimes I am woke up every half hour from that darn out of control dog. It really makes me angry! So what I did to combat that noise was buy myself a portable air conditioning system and a portable space heater. You are probably wondering what on earth portable HVAC equipment has to do with the noise being made by horrible neighbors. Well, the fact that these portable devices make loud but calming noise when on is how they help. Right now it is beginning of summer, so it is hot out. What I do is run the portable air conditioning system on either the low setting or the fan setting and the white noise from it drowns out the neighbors and their dumb dog. And I can sleep sound and in peace! When the winter comes, I will run the portable space heater in the same way. Now an extra perk with this is the fact in which I am saving a little bit of money on my monthly electric bills! I do not run my central heating and air conditioning system at the same time with the portable air conditioning system or the portable space heater running.
