Hi all,

I've just set up a new Eheim 2227 Wet/Dry External Filter and I can't believe how noisy it is, has anyone else got one and experiencing a similar thing ?

Does it quieten down after it's been running a while or is there anything you can do to make it a bit quieter ?

Cheers.
 
I cant comment on that exact model, but i have the Ecco 2236 and its noisy as hell until the air bubbles get out of the system, once gone its silent. I generally give the canister a little shake and the air that is trapped come out and that sorts it.
 
If you actually have the filter working you have been blessed. I had a 2227 for about a month and it never worked properly throughout. I found it wasn't that noisy once up and running to start with, but eventually became noisy and would not flush through as it should do.

It soon went back to the shop in exchange for an Eheim Classic.
 
It seems I put the lid on the wrong way round :blush:

Hope it helps quieten it down once corrected.
