By the way, we have both a washing machine and a dryer new from Miele and yet you can hear these appliances (and we do not have the cheapest models), and in my opinion, a soundproof door definitely makes sense. We also have a controlled residential ventilation system and the sealing certainly hinders the air from flowing through, however, someone very often goes into the utility room here, so I don’t see any problems with that; the door is not closed all day. I would have the soundproof door installed again anytime, it’s amazing how much quieter it is because of it.
Best regards
