Hi,
I've been impressed by some really intelligent answers here, and now I need help.
I'm looking for a 24" wide electric washing machine for a 3rd floor. I don't care whether it is front or top load, and I don't care whether it stacks or is unitized. My biggest concern is about noise and vibration during the spin cycle. I run a vacation rental on the floor below, and I really don't want the folks who stay here to be bothered by machine noise from above.
Additional info: I am not able to decouple the ceiling below. I've triple-braced the floor joists and insulated with Sound Cow. There's a layer of 3/4" plywood, and I can add a layer of Hardi-board under the tile, but I'm still worried about machine noise.
Suggestions please?
