There is nothing special about powering a miner , so think of it as if it's a TV or a Fridge, if you have enough power to power it up, then all good.
there is nothing you going to lose for not being able to mine 24/7 , however , there are a few payments methods , the best that suits you is PPS = Pay per share , this will ensure that you get paid for every share you submit when your miner is on, here is a simple example.
let's assume your miner submits 1 shares per second , and each share = 0.00001 btc for every second your miner is on, you get 0.00001 btc, when you turn it off, nothing of the previous work would have gone missing.
as far as the noise goes, there are some silent boxes and tweaks that a few members here have showed, you can search the forum , but keep in mind these things are loud , so no matter how much you try to make them quite, the fans will always make some noise.
