    Mysterious humming noise in the house
    Previous question was closed
    I live in Birmingham in England and we have the same problem here.
    I have heard the on/off hum in three different homes in this area and also in a house in Gloucestershire.
    Only inside never outside not even at 05.00 when its dead quiet.
    There are no overhead power lines near any of the 4 properties.
    It's even been in a local newspaper with other people experiencing the same hum.

    Note they mention Bristol, Cheshire, Cornwall, Gloucestershire, London, Shropshire, Suffolk and Wiltshire.

Hello, I hope you folks can help me. Recently, we have been hearing a loud, low frequency "hum" throughout our house. I have turned the main power off to determine whether it's electrical. It's not. The noise does sound like a "fog horn" going off several blasts at a time and the noise level...
