How to Reduce Air Pump Noise:
Check the Air Pump Placement:
- For optimal performance, position the air pump above the water line (e.g., on a shelf or a stand above the tank).
- If the pump is below the water level, it can create more noise and cause vibrations.
Minimise Vibration:
- To reduce noise from vibrations, attach a soft material like a sponge under the pump. This prevents direct contact with the surface and absorbs some of the sound.
- Make sure the pump isn’t resting on hard surfaces that can amplify sound.
Inspect the Airline:
- Ensure the airline is properly secured and free of blockages.
- Check that no objects are crushing or restricting the pipe, as this can increase noise and reduce airflow.
Examine the Outlet Connection:
- Inspect the outlet connection for any damage, debris, or obstructions that could be causing noise.
- Ensure everything is connected properly and there are no leaks.
