Hi Crainto,
Yes, I have found that once the skimmer gets a coating of slime for a better word the noise does come down a lot. I have the value fully open and its gets dirty pretty quick. As soon as I give it a full clean, the noise comes back for a bit until the coating builds again. Give it time and it does appear to get better. Something to watch is that the inlet opening can get material stuck in it which makes a hell of a racket if you don't remove it.
Please start a chronicle so we can track how it goes.
