I have a small house on a concrete slab. The furnace is located in a
small closet near the living room. When the furnace kicks on it is
extremely loud and hard to hold a converstation much less watch a
telivision show. Is there anything I can do to quite this down? Oh yea
the furnace is a Dayton Fuel-trimmer.

Looking forward to some good ideas,
Kevin

Upflow furnace? small slab on grade, Let me guess...

By chance is this unit sitting directly on a return plenum box open on one
side, with the grille below the door?
Fairly common return setup in a small apt/condo/home application.
Problem is, the blower noise is huge.
A couple baffles in the return might help, but your messing with airflow &
that can cause another batch of issues.

If not, please disregard...

goodluck
