Neil, of course you are. But the swing compressor is noisier and vibrates
more, from my own experience with both. The Danfoss is virtually silent and
free of vibration when running - the only thing you'll hear is the fan. It
does make a 'bump' sound on startup. The Norcold DC0040 I had in my Westy
for a couple years vibrated the cabinet and could definitely hear the
compressor unit running.
