Bull Noise level on Bull?

[chewbacman]

Hey All,
I am about ready to pull the trigger on a bull. One thing I was wondering how loud it is. My current pellet is pretty loud and it is a smaller unit. I am going to be putting this in on our outdoor covered deck. Are you still able to sit and have conversations relatively close to the bull or does it kind of drown out everything? A lot of the time I would probably being doing long smokes so the food will be off long before people arrive, but there will certainly be times that I could see having people out on the deck while I am cooking. I was also thinking about maybe building an outdoor kitchen which i would suspect could drown out some of the noise coming out the back of the unit at a minimum.
Thanks for your responses!

I wouldn't call the fan noise loud, but you can certainly hear it. I have the same setup on my deck. It's not bad, you can still hold a conversation easily.

Agreed. You can hear the fan but not a bother at all.

The Bull is no louder than a small convection oven running when the fan is ON & the lid closed.

If it's too loud castrate it!

Go to 3:30 when he has it on.. you can hear him talk over it. Not bad honestly. I would not worry about conversation. If anything it will be a conversation piece.
