I have been hearing a rather loud click from the front end only when I
have the heat/air on. The click is louder when the heat is on and
seems to be at a constant interval and usually happens every 30-60
seconds. I have heard people say that the compressor might be making
that noise. Is this normal, and is it ok for it to be rather loud?
Thanks for all the help!

Well, when the compressor clicks on, it does a kind of clank more that
click, but is it was the compressor, the interval should change
depending on you temperature settings or the outside air temp. You
could always watch it engage and see if the sound came from there.
