Noisy 6208 Wavebox

[MDP]

Anyone any fixes for a noisy wavebox? Have had it for a while and just love the performance of this kit, just perfect in my small peninsula setup. Only thing is that the pump is noisy when it comes on, i had thought these were near silent? Could it be that a new pump/impeller is required?

Thanks

How old is it and what is the noise? There will be a noise from the water surging in and out of the box, but there should not be a loud pump noise.

I posted a reply earlier and it didn't go through I guess.

The pump is not assembled, the back motor half needs to be connected to the propeller housing, by the noise I am almost sure this is what is wrong, the back half is loose so the propeller is hitting the propeller housing.

Thank you Roger. Yes all silent now. Thank you so much.

No problem, thank you!
