On most serenity gardens, you will find wind chimes, not cheap junk you speak of, but well tuned chimes that start around $100. They are placed where those who need solitude to make decisions. Kind of white noise
They are low pitch, that will make single sound, due to the heavy tubes, they will barely move with a gentle breeze. That why they are considered soothing. Many cancer research centers the garden will usually have such a chime. Even a brisk breeze sound is usually heard only by those sitting near.
Our windows were next to them, couldn’t hear them inside. Can’t comment on chimes in a dollar store, ours was $350. Garden was frequented by those who just lost a loved one, and by many of us who just had a bad outcome to come to terms with
Have never seen a chime go 24/7, unless it was in a store with a full blown fan.
