A clapping sound is heard — External device interfering

What does A clapping sound is heard mean?

A clapping sound may occur if an external device, like an exhaust fan or range hood, is removing air from the room. This creates a pressure difference that can cause noise.

• Running an exhaust fan or range hood while doors and windows are closed
• Negative air pressure in the room

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Open a window or door to equalize the air pressure in the room.

2. 2

   Turn off the external device (exhaust fan, range hood) causing the air pull.

3. 3

   Check if the sound stops after adjusting these factors.
