Any one else got an issue with the noise? I know that the air intake has the 'suck' noise which does'nt really bother me, i think its the pump noise thats doing it, and i'm sure its vibrating against something thus making the hood vibrate to! Any suggestions?

If the pump is mounted onto the skimmer slightly offline it can vibrate.
I suggest you remove the pump, check the impeller for damage/debris and assuming all is well, reconnect and reinstall.

Aah, so it was for you.
Andy is a great retailer always despite always giving me grief, he's a top bloke.
It's about time I strayed North of Bristol again so I'll dig out my warm weather gear and passport and might stray north of the border before too long to see him. Let me know how you get on with the pump suggestion and email me to: steveh@redseafish.com
