Lol, you do realize it creates a lot of heat right? Encasing it in some kind of noise reduction jacket will only cause the heat to get worse and possibly burn it out. Although, it is a good idea. The fact is, this is one of the smaller models designed for low noise. Like I've said before, I've walked by at 1 am when it's spinning like crazy and from the street, about 120' away, you can hear it, I just can't believe at appr 250', where the closest house on Hamlet Ct. is, it's so loud it would keep someone awake. I mean, it isn't spinning that fast all the time, just once in a while. Most of the time when it's spinning, it's spinning a lot slower and is relatively quiet.
