Hi everyone! We live near a supermarket.  From 6 AM to midnight, they have A/C or something running that makes a very loud and constant humming sound.  I’m going slowly insane from the noise.  The noise is so loud that I wonder if it violates some sort of noise ordinance. Any advice on how I can go about getting more information about noise regulations and how to tackle this problem?  I’ve tried searches online, but I don’t know exactly what I should search for. Thanks in advance for any help.  I’m truly finding myself going mad.

Can call 311 or report it online. I think it will help if your neighbors do the same. http://www.nyc.gov/apps/311/allServices.htm?requestType=relatedService&serviceName=Noise+from+Air+Conditioner+or+Ventilation+Equipment&intentId=E9E66310-8137-11DE-8E9F-96DAE110FEB8

Perhaps they have a pully or a belt about to break.  A bad bearing would make a noise for a while before it breaks.  The store may have a maintenance contract.  Have you talked to the manager about it?
