This thing sometimes sounds like a old fan belt screaming!! And then it will stop and start up again. It's in our bedroom but I almost tossed it out the window when at 2:30am I woke thinking a cat was being killed. The screeching sound was horrible!! I adjusted the blue valve just a tiny bit and it stopped for the night.
It's working great! Picking up green gunk and everything.
But tonight I'm laying down watching Family Guy and that sound again! My wife was like what the heck is going on?! I ran to the tank to try an quite it down, this time it took a few little tweaks of the valve now as I write it's quite again. It comes and goes.
Anyone else have this problem? Is it normal? It's been running for about 2 weeks so it should be broken in. Never made this sound up until 2 days ago. I'm constantly having to adjust the valve at least once a day. And sometimes it sounds like a wind tunnel, like a rush of air through a tiny hose. A loud whooshing sound and sometimes it's quiet.
What gives?
It's in the 2nd chamber of my bio cube 29.
