I run a Mag 950 on a 1.5" return from my sump. While quiet, I think it could be quieter. In particular, I get a hum that I think is transmitting throught the bottom glass pane of the sump and then my hardwood floors. I have a piece of foam under it, but it doens't help much. Heat transfer doesn't seem to bad (but then again, it's a small pump).

Has anyone tried Oase sumbmersible pumps?

try hanging the pump from the hose, suspend it so it doesn't touch anything with string or i have use that surgical tubing you can get from Rona. Worked for me when i needed it.

Interesting idea! I hadn't thought of that. I'll give it a try this weekend. Thanks. :biggrin:
