    I have a PanWorld 200PS return pump and I have noticed there is more noise than I would like coming from the fan. I have heard there is some kind of modification that can reduce the fan noise. I have search on the net but came up with no results. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance.

    I dont remember the link but I think it was just removing the black part (fan housing). I have one too and most external pumps make some noise so if you want something quieter go with internal or some expensive external pump such as dolphin.

    P.S. If you remove the fan housing then you have the fan spinning with no protection. So run at your own risk.
