why the popping noises.

When mine was first installed, my electrician said I would hear some noises (something like a popping noise) after the unit shuts off and that would be normal. I'm not sure why. I've had mine installed for over 7 months and have not had any issues with it. I don't know for sure if it no longer makes the noise, or if it stops after a time.

it may be the coil heating up when the unit is new we have not experienced this noise with ours.

Without seeing or hearing the problem, I would call a professional. Worst case, there is something wrong with the unit, which can be a fire hazard.

It's a very high pitched buzzing noise. It's very loud. Enough to startle you or an animal if you aren't expecting it.

Yes...I'm hearing a "beeping" electronic sound too. I actually returned my frist Flip due to software errors and also this noise problem. I just got a new one in the mail and it's making the noise too. Not as loud as the other one, but it's still there....and very annoying! If anyone knows how to fix this problem, please reply. Thanks!!!!

There is a built in prong in the unit, Just remove the paper sticker, leaving the plastic cap, then put the bottle intothe unit. You will hear a pop as the prong punctures the cap.

If the bottom of the pan is wet when you heat it up, you are likely to hear some popping noise.

"Loud snaps and pops when the computer re-boots" : I believe that is nothing to do with the speakers. I get that sound with any speakers with my computer. An Audio card with a noise filter might fix that sound.

There is a buzz heard when directly in front of TV at any distance. It is NOT inherent in Plasma technology but specific to this model. To me it is extremely annoying. I heard it during normal programming at normal volumes. It is a design flaw in TV that has not been addressed and it is a total deal breaker for me. Your mileage may very but I'm not listening to that high pitched whiny noise on such an expensive television set.

The only thing I can think of is to adjust the input settings on your computer's audio settings, or there is a program called Spin It Again, by Acoustica, that cleans pops, crackles and hisses. I hope this will help.

It sounds like a beep that lasts about a second. I haven't heard it for a while now so it really scares the kibble out of 'em.

there is also a switch on the side that switches the type of sound you get. that might be the problem.

Yes it does make a popping/clicking sound as the valve opens and closes during operation. If it does not, you have lost or have very low suction pressure and the pool will not get cleaned. Its less annoying than neighbors have a tendency to be!!!

I have this model and for me it does do a crack and a popple (or pop & crackle) every now and again. i always assumed it was from the heat inside it's chamber expanding the plastic slighty. No idea though....just make sure it's well ventilated.

look it up on youtube. The suction inside makes it sound like gagging noises.

No. The manufacturer has indicated the popping sound is the impeller hitting the housing as it starts up, which Hydor says is inherent in their 120v AC power heads. They recommend running the pumps longer so it will pop less, but you'll still hear the knocking if you hear it now. Hydor's only recommendation was to switch to their DC pump and controller system, which does not have the issue with spinning backwards or striking the housing. The Smart Wave controller cannot fix the issue with the power heads.
