They most certainly have a major malfunction. Trust me they are amazingly quiet. They self-test themselves every month I think and I was standing next to the next doors neighbors unit having my water filters replaced and it wasn't even as loud as a push lawnmower with a 5 horsepower engine.
I'm speaking of a Generac that is stationary, hooked up to a propane tank that is underground. Generac also sells portable units that would be able to be heard a block away, no doubt.
