Moderate.  But ours is a very quiet house otherwise.  No TV blaring, no 
central heat, no traffic noise, etc.  So that thing running is noticeable and 
no 
mistake.  I suppose in the thick of the season, which will be in a couple of 
weeks, one gets used to it as it is going night and day.

Another factor is that even with the cover on, it can put a lot of heat into 
the room (which in our case is the whole house).  Not really welcome in July 
and August.

Still, noise and heat, it's worth it.  And electricity too, still cheaper 
than canning with electricity (which we don't do) or freezing by a wide 
margin.
