john_eire · 2017-03-26 13:57:28

Hi all Have a E.sybox boost pump fitted to our house its a new build, Its is fitted in the hot press upstairs, on concrete slab floor I'm just finding it very noisy when it's operating, I was hope/wondering Someone would have a idea how to make it quieter.

Suspend it from above on springs and get flexible hose connections to the copper pipework fitted by plumber
Should drastically reduce noise transmission!

Some carpet foam underlay, flexi hose connections and move it a couple of inches out from the wall.

Build a box around it too after doing what was suggested above. But check to see if you can enclose the pump in a box first as some pumps need air circulation. Check the instructions
