Exclamation Why is my O2 concentrator so loud?

It's been this way since I bought it, so I thought it was normal, but can anyone tell me why my oxygen concentrator is so noisy? People describe them as whisper-quiet, or as loud as a fridge running, but mine (new from Extreme Oxygen) is much louder than the fan I use to ventilate. Certainly louder than a hothead. Sounds like the motor/compressor/whatever it is itself, as the whooshes of pushing out air are still relatively quiet.

Is there anything I can do to fix this myself (my husband and I are somewhat handy)? I don't want to have to send off to EO, as I've heard enough about their customer service to not want to have to deal with them. It took long enough to get it, that's for sure.

Help?
