My 5th wheel had a very loud pump so I went to Harbor Freight and bought one of those rubbery floor mats for working on concrete. I cut the mat to fit the base of the pump and then doubled it up so there were 2 pieces. I pre drilled the mats and then reinstalled the water pump using longer screws. It's not sound proof but it is quieter. I would be hesitant about covering the motor with the sound dampening material as it my cause the pump to overheat. Love the channel ! Keep up the good work!

Flojet pumps have thermal shut down protection

[@tommclouth5049]

An accumulator helps quiet the pump by a lot. Very easy to install.

[@Super_C_Chows]

I did something similar with a fuel pump on a car. It worked great but it did overheat and caused premature failure

[@spencerduncan]

Will be interested if this causes the pump to overheat/fail prematurely? Motors are designed to be self cooling. You just put a blanket over it that will cause it to get hotter than normal.

Funny to watch this today. I just changed my water pump on the weekend. My replacement was 23 years newer! (I laughed when you said 6 years newer).

[@Retired5oh]

The water line connected to the pump with the blue connecter is slightly flattened and compressed. You should replace it with longer hose that gives a bigger loop and will allow the hose to expand. A compressed hose will cause noise because of the increased water pressure.

Check out The Intelligent RV Water Pump Controller. Was a game changer for us. Especially when Boondocking conserving waster.

[@Tom.and.Missy.Northam]

Good job. I saw someone actually did something similar but created an enclosure if the sound deadening material. I might try that for ours, it's pretty loud, especially in the middle of the night when you're trying to be quiet. Thanks !!

[@EndlessRVing]

Enclosure would be even better.

[@Rick-x8h]

I used an expansion tank off Amazon, set the pressure on and and takes scant minutes to do it. Absolutely no hammering with the water pump on my motorhome. About 25 30 bucks and simple to do. Check it out.

I may be the odd comment here but I don’t mind the water pump noise ( not terrible loud) it is a kind of warning notice that the pump is running. If a leak occurs it could avoid a major flood. Just my thoughts. Thanks ERV for great videos.

[@EndlessRVing]

You will still hear it, just not as loud.

[@terry3193]

Great diy video. That made a huge difference. Thanks for sharing!

[@sherriweber7105]

Thank you Izzy for this DIY video! Great job! I see why you fixed the pump. It was loud. Then after you fixed it was quiet. Great job fixing it. Say hi to MJ for me. And how many days does Jason have left of school. My cousin daughter is graduating this Friday. In Michigan. Thank you for the DIY video!

[@dougmyers6013]

I used Mercedes Air Cleaner isolation mounts from a mid 80's model diesel, no noise, rattles & vibration free 4 for $14.00

[@kenpotter2008]

Thanks again for another DYI. Always enjoy your videos and update on everything from soup to nuts. Keep it up.

[@bobabooie6389]

I always thought the noise comes from the water hose itself rubbing against the wall👍🏻🇺🇲

[@raymondschneider5217]

What a difference the material made, Izzy!! Has the mnfgr responded to WHY the diff in sound volumne? Will def keep this material in mind for DYI for myself. Also, am responding to the Release cleaner; that'll be GREAT for ANY use -- not just RV! Keep up the great content! My best to MJ and Jason (oh, how's he doing in college?!. Y'all Be Safe!

[@EndlessRVing]

Thanks for the comment. Jason starts college in August

[@raoulroberts2024]

Goal accomplished. 👍🏾

[@jmcgilvary]

Noticed a reflection in the bay doors at 2:17. Are THOSE the shoes you clean for MJ 😂

[@ericverpeten8503]

Great video ! 👍👍

[@richardburguillos3118]

That doesn’t sound normal for a pump. Something might be wrong with the new pump. Careful wrapping it up like you did that the pump doesn’t overheat because now it can’t radiate heat because it’s wrapped.

[@stephenlevan6676]

Hey are you aware of the IRVWPC2 Intelligent RV Water Pump Controller? You would love this upgrade!

[@EndlessRVing]

We will check it out

[@robcacchio6774]

I wish I would have seen this video before i bought that electronic module from Canada that supposedly reduces the water pump noise! lol it should be here this week! 190.00

[@bobcleveland7316]

Nicely done!

[@roydavis2242]

I would have just used a rubber washer between the pump and the wall. That's where the vibration and noise is likely permeating the inside. I would never wrap the pump because that could cause it to over heat. Motors need ventilation. I know many RVers who have relocated their pump as well as upgraded it. I have a variable speed one. I carry a spare pump as well.

[@EndlessRVing]

There are rubber grommets between the wall and pump it was still very loud

[@thomneil4764]

Did you say you have video on the installation of the sound/heat reduction on your doghouse?

[@EndlessRVing]

We mentioned it in a previous vlog. It was not a how to video

[@wesalexander2693]

Very good, Izzy, nice job. Looking at many of the OEM type hose clamps, always worried about leaks, I tend to want to replace them with the stainless type that tighten with a screw, did you have any problems with the ones that were originally installed on the hoses?

[@EndlessRVing]

No problem with any of the fittings so far!!

[@theodorehyatt1782]

I would remove it from the pump IMO it's going to burst into flames most of the noise was from mounting on metal I hope I'm wrong about fire BSTS

[@EndlessRVing]

Flo jet pump have thermal overheating protection that will shut down the motorhome if it overheats

[@kevinkoch1078]

Mounted mine on a piece of deeper pile carpet but i like your choice better. I use Release after each day of driving to remove the bug buildup. Works effortlessly. We also have a '23 Bay Star. Now please show me a solution for the never ending squeaking and rattling of the screen/exterior door while driving. Turning up the radio volume only goes so far. I realize this is only an annoyance but it is our biggest dislike of our coach.

[@EndlessRVing]

Line your door frame with foam weather tape to make the door shut tighter. Use felt pads between the screen and door to reduce rattle.

[@RichardPerry-cr7nc]

Pretty sure wrapping the pump is going to make it overheat & die much sooner than normal.

[@EndlessRVing]

Time will tell

[@deanmcdanel5923]

I think you may have a cooling problem by covering the pump causing a premature failure.

[@EndlessRVing]

Time will tell

[@Dawes-Drummin]

Now your pump can overheat, being fully wrapped….

[@EndlessRVing]
