By coincidence I was in my dentist's office a few weeks ago and noticed that
when their compressor came on it was pretty loud. It sounded like it was in a
closet, and sounded almost like a normal pancake compressor. It wasn't TOO
loud, but it was very obvious when it was running. It didn't run very long
though.
