Just got Hydor Flo and I can hear the thing across the room,I understand how it works and there are water driven gears inside but should it be this loud.

Mine is dead silent.

 

 

 

Did you purchase new? If you bought it used.. it may need a cleaning.

Take it apart and squirt some WD40 in it. JK JK

 

All the ones I've had were pretty quiet. I'd take it apart and inspect it for burrs. They're very easy to disassemble.

I second taking it apart. I can't imagine it being loud though... the thing is nothing but plastic. Just make sure all the gears inside look good, the thing is only like a total of 4 pieces.

Both of mine are dead silent. I will take them apart every six months for a little cleaning.
