*Warning, a silly question*
I have no knowledge of heating technology, but there is one thing that is important to me: the heating system must not produce any disturbing noises (and I am easily disturbed, for example by humming, buzzing, or similar sounds). It would not be installed in the basement, but on the living floor.
Are there types of heating systems that tend to be problematic in this regard?

It's just inconvenient if, for example, you have exhaust air in the room – I couldn't install a soundproof door because of that. However, you can then work with transfer grilles again.

Only more difficult to do afterward...

However, sound insulation can be omitted if a door frame with an overflow vent is to be installed.

There are also soundproofing elements available.

Soundproofing is only as effective as the weakest point.

Well said, but it will still help – what other options are there if you want better sound insulation?

For example, I would never install my heat pump on the ground floor – that would simply be too noisy for me.

Better planning? You cannot hear our heat pump on the ground floor. On one hand, because of soundproofing, and on the other, it rarely operates at night.
