Hi All - 1 year old Pentair 400k gas heater. I am noticing every now and then our heater vibrates. Yesterday it was fine, today it vibrates. The vibration is low and you can hear it inside our house.

Changing pump speed doesn’t seem to make any difference. Any idea what might be the issue?

Here’s a video of the sound …

 
Pool company came and tested gas pressure and it was fine. They did not remove the thermal regulator, but suggested it could be a low flow issue since I'm running my pump at 1900. They suggested running it higher next time it occurs to see if it alleviates the humming.

Strangely, the issue hasn't occurred in the last month.
