Rear AC.."Quiet Cool" is very loud

When the fan runs its not too bad but when the compressor kicks in it sounds like a residential outside unit...very loud. Is this normal?

Bedroom unit is much quieter....

They look like they are both the same from outside.

Assuming your front AC is the whisper air, not normal. Ours is very quiet, just a soft hum. Wish the bedroom was configured the same, it is old fashioned loud

I don't know, ours is a 2015. Guess they changed the name to quiet zone, but front AC feeds directly into duct and is super quiet. No traditional AC Vent/fixture in the ceiling. Of course ours was an early 2015 before they make the mid-year production changes for our floorplan, all of which were negative in our opinion.

yep our early 2015 has the whisper quiet A/C in the rear which is super Quiet and the regular A/C in the bedroom which is pretty loud and like 1retired06 said I am glad to have a early 2015 the mid year changes were not good in our floorplan as well(except for the nice silver front cap)

When I said front I meant living room. The bedroom is the noisy (traditional) one.

Same here, but I sleep like a rock and it drowns out everything else.
