Title=AQUA ONE 101F MAXI INTERNAL FILTER 350 L/HR Hi All, Does anyone have one of these filters? I've just inherited one and have put it in to use but it's REALLY noisy. A loud constant humming/vibrating and the odd rattle/clacking noise? Now I know most filters make a little bit of noise but this just seems too loud to me, so any suggestions as to what could be wrong?? I've looked at the impeller and cant see anything visibly wrong with it? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Have you taken the impeller out and cleaned it and the housing? It's not hard to do and you will be able to check for damage as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bay7 Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Yeah, did that thanks Adrienne but it didnt look damaged. Its held on to the little spindle by magnestism it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 was anything scratched or scoured? Generally the rattling and noise is the impellor coming loose and flicking around Did you run it and look at it running (it is safe to do it for a short period of time). No stones stuck anywhere?
