Our neighbours air conditioner is about 6 ft from our deck.We put up a fence and planted cedars but the high pitched buzz is so bad we get a headache if we sit on our deck. We even have to close the bedroom windows abovem the deck. We said we would pay for a compressor cover but he won't let us do anything.
