Yes they are loud. Like I said in a previous post I would only use it as
a defogger during the summer in the rain back in the day. When I was
dating my now wife back then she would not let me turn it on because she
couldn't stand the noise. She would keep a towel or rag handy and wipe
off the fog off the windshield while I drove.
