*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?

I visited a model home by Viebrockhaus that had a heat pump installed without an outdoor unit. I actually couldn’t hear the heat pump, except when I was in the utility room,If you pay attention to this in a model home, be sure to ask whether they have installed additional soundproofing or thicker walls in the model home! You can also check the wall thickness yourself by looking at the door frame.
If so, ask whether this is included in the standard price or if there is an extra charge.

maybe a solid core door is enough In my opinion, the first step would be to install a drop-down seal; only after that would I replace the door leaf (or do both at the same time, but never a heavy door leaf without a drop-down seal).
We are getting a Planet Min E/F (link available on request, but it can be found easily), which promises sound insulation and airflow control. Let’s see...

Decoupling is absolutely important (and often neglected) Exactly (I’m afraid both statements are true)!

I can understand the original poster well. I will also have to deal with the issue of noise sensitivity (especially when trying to sleep) in due course.
How practical would it be, in this context, to relocate the mechanical/heating room, for example, to an extended garage? Or is that a bad idea because all the pipes would then have to run over to the house anyway (additional costs, heat loss, etc.)?

I would be quite cautious about relocating the heating system to a separate garage for the reasons you mentioned. When your heat generator is inside your house, the losses (depending on the type of heater, boiler losses through radiation, flue gas losses, and of course transport losses) still benefit your building to a certain extent. If you move it outside, you lose all of these gains completely to the outdoors. Therefore, I would rather recommend consulting a professional planner to review different heating systems and their noise emissions to help find the optimal solution for you.
