Ditto for the GE frig which is the French door variety.......it's not the chirping of the ice maker "filter".....totally different sound.
I also hear it "in the walls" in the kitchen.............as strange as that may sound.

At first I thought it was our hot water baseboard heat.....but last summer the heat was not on.

Many people oppose these smart meters...........

Not saying our "sound" is the same as yours........but who knows?
No, we don't have a "smart meter" installed on the house. Have you confirmed that all those sounds are from the "smart meter" when it is reading your electric meter?
