Normal Sump Noise Level

[Harry Muscle]

I'm setting up my first ever sump and I was wondering what the normal noise level is for a sump. The sump is an Aqueon Proflex 4 sump and is located in the basement. It's plumbed with 1.5" PVC that splits to two 1" connections since that's what the sump is equipped for.

Here's a video of the sump and how much noise it's making. The sump lid isn't on in this video so it will be a bit quieter with than on. Is this a normal amount of noise? Or should it be quieter?



Thanks,
Harry

Is the noise coming from the drain pipe or the sump? What kind of overflow are you using?
