quiet pumps?

[juiceguy]

i just got my new set up and running and my reeflo goby pump sounds like a washing machine on spin cycle. i know Red Dragons are quiet but the do not have that much head pressure. anyone have any suggestions?

i need the pump to be able to run 8ft to run the chiller, feed my 2 reactors, also travel another 7ft to feed the fuge and acieve at least 5x turnover which should be around 1500gph

Keep in mind that eldows will cut down your water pressure.

I have a quiet 1 pump as my mainpump and it works great u can't even tell it's on

jada, no Quiet One pump will work for his application. He needs a 20 + foot head pressure rated pump and unfortunately they either all sound like washing machines or turbine engines getting ready to take off.

i talked to Chris at reeflo and he said give 5 days to break-in, if it is still noisy
he will swap it out for another one. he said they are not dead silent but it should not be the first thing you notice.

Every reeflo or Sequence pump I used was the first thing I notice in my system..
