Like all deep cleaning machines, the Britex Deep Cleaner produces noise during cleaning. The machine features an industrial grade vacuum which is part of the reason it delivers such a powerful clean. The sound levels of the Britex machine have been tested independently and fall within the parameters of what is considered safe.  Britex sound levels are less than that of other household appliances such as a hair dryer or food blender.

For your comfort during cleaning you may choose to wear ear muffs. When the machine is resting on a hard floor surface, we suggest placing a towel under the machine to absorb some of the noise.
