Smile Ocean runner 3500

I just plugged in my new OR 3500 and am VERY dissapointed with the noise level. I'm wondering if I have a faulty pump, or if that is just how loud they are. I don't expect it to be dead quiet, but it has a room filling hum/ rattle to it. I lifted it out enough so there wouldn't be anything for it to vibrate against, and that wasn't the problem.


EDIT:

Nevermind, the impellar must not have been in correctly because it works GREAT now! There is pretty much no noise what-so-ever. I'm happy now!
