I've had my skimmer offline for almost a year now because I couldn't handle the noise anymore in my living room with my open cabinet. I recently put it back on, and wow it is as loud as I remember and I had to turn it off again.
Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do, short from replacing the whole thing? I'm currently thinking about ordering the varios 2 skimmer pump.

The stock pump specs are:
Ajustable Air Draw: Approx. 172 - 238 GPH (650 - 900 LPH)
And the varios:
Max Flow: 238 GPH
Max Air Draw: up to 900 LPH (32 SCFH)*
The flow and air draw match. Is their anything else I should look into or will this will work?
Any other opinions on what i should do? Its just so loud! Thank you!
