Is this pump one of the quieter ones on the market?

Very quiet. Mine is in the basement and I never hear it. I has mine for 14 months and the motor locked up. I had to take it an authorized repair place. Speller said that they would fix it or replace it. After 6 weeks, the repair place said that it was shot and it wasn't under warrantee. My original instruction manual said that it was under warrantee. I called zoeller and they said that it was warranted for 3 year from date of manufacture not date of purchase. Zoeller finally set me a new pump.

This is the second Zoeller pump I have owned. The first one came with my house when I bought it. It was probably 15-20 years old when it finally went. This new one is about the same loudness as the original. You will be able to hear it but its not super loud or anything. Sounds like a normal sump pump should should like. Most of the noise I hear is the water rushing out and the check valve closing.

I had two Barnes Pumps SP50AX in a sump pit in the basement. I replaced one of them by a Zoeller 98. I did not hear the Barnes from my bedroom. I DO hear the Zoeller. It doesn't prevent me from sleeping. But it is definitely noisier.

No, it is not one of the quieter ones. Personally I think it is fairly loud, especially for one very good reason.That reason is...this pump needs vent holes in the pipe section between the pump and valve. The holes cause water to stream out as the pump is working and after it turns off. This stream is fairly loud.Better to get a pump that specifically doesn't need these vent holes, such as a Wayne unit.

Not sure, but Zoeller is one of the highest quality / most reliable brands you can get. We can hear the pump in the basement from the second floor, but it isn't anything that would wake you up.

It is no louder than other filters. The main noises are the bubbles and the pump. If your pump is quiet the filter will be quiet. I keep mine in my bedroom and the noise does not bother me.

It is one of the quieter ones out there. Perhaps it is because it is a lower velocity gun.

My pump is in the basement. You can hear it but it becomes background noise. If you are looking for a silent pump, good luck!

Yes. It is an underwater pump that makes no noise. I've had it for the entire season and it worked great!

just installed it. VERY quiet and it seems to working great. Make sure you wire it before plumbing it, small area inside the pump housing to connect the wires and it is easier to do so when you can move the pump.

Yes, it's very loud. It didn't work well for me and I ended up renting one from the hospital. It's a much larger and more efficient pump, and much quieter.

I think it was advertised as being quieter. I have not compared it, so I can't verify this.

I have two of these pumps. Both are used to circulate hot water in a boiler operated RV heating system. Both are very quiet.

I find it to be very quiet except when the reservoir is running low, which is good because it alerts me to refill the reservoir. I have it sitting on a rubber mat and the noise is almost nothing.

Depending on where the pump is sitting, it may be vibrating on the surface. It will make some noise, but compatative to other air pumps this one is quiet. You can also try putting a washcloth underneath it.

standing 3 feet away from this pump you can only hear a very soft hum which is unavoidable,and my tank has water falling in it which completely covers the sound,definitely far from noisy,hope this helps...

At low rpms it is very quiet, at higher rpms it is louder but not as loud as single speed pumps that I have had.

Mine is not quiet, but it's certainly not offensive. Sounds like most any pump machine.

Less noise than my other, cheaper brand that won't inflate a balloon. It does make some noise, but it is a smooth, constant pumping. The unit doesn't vibrate excessively or wobble around on the floor or anything. I think these small, portable units are all kind of loud while they are working.

This unit is very quiet. The only thing making noise in my installation is the permeate pump that I added to it. But even that doesn't bother me.
