I'm glad the rubber insulation feet have worked well for you, and I hope you have no unwanted resonant vibrations.

I posted the message that you quoted because a personal friend of mine had installed an LG unit to an outside wall of his frame house, above head height. He is very thoughtful with his work and his craftsmanship is be best I have ever seen on anything he attempts. To be quite honest, I'm not sure if he used rubber vibration insulators or not. It would be odd for him to overlook such a thing. But his house is very quiet and the noise problem was not easily ignored.

Good that you found a solution.
