Paul said all the cool kids insulated their heater boxes so they were luxury quiet.
I have a left over 5 gallon bucket of a product called "Quiet Car" that I bought 20 years ago to sound insulate the interior of a Ford Escape my wife drove. Stripped the interior out of her brand new rig on a Friday night and painted everything below the windows 3 times then reinstalled the interior Sunday afternoon so she could head to work Monday. Stuff worked pretty good. Used it on the back side of my bi-fold laundry doors to dampen the dreaded laundry sounds. Also an '81 Yota a couple years ago.
Anyway, painted up the large portions of the heater assembly with this stuff. Takes the ring out of the metal components and even deadens the sound of the fiberglass box. Looking forward to having heat on command now. A small roller would have put a little more professional texture to it, but would be real hard to do with the crooks and nannies.
