Whomever comes up with the "Durso-pro" version that is quieter is going to be rich! Here are my thoughts.
I hope that person is me!!!

First, as a DIYer I bet you are used to building solutions that actually solve problems. It is my experience that the Durso Standpipe, while providing a SIGNIFICANT reduction in noise in your overflow box, does not eliminate the noise.
This is what I was told to do (by the wife), fix that noise or get rid of the tank!!!! I can't sleep at night with that thing.

So, I will be working on this problem untill I get it fixed!!!! When I do I will give all of you a picture and instructions on what to do to make your wife/Girlfriend, happy too! Then we can all sit back and have a cold one....
