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?

Or some other louder piece of equipment to drown out the Mag.

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.
