    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    Don't know if it is a leaf basket, but since there is one pump for the cleaning system and filtering, there is a preliminary net and then the typical leaf basket on the pump. The net is needed because the cleaning system processes a lot of sand and pebbles.

    Right. It's normal now. I don't run at 90% normally.

    Sorry for the delay. Here it is. Not sure it helps.

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    I'm sorry I neglected to update the forum on the results. The project/field manager initially setup the pool. I naively believed he knew what he was doing. As I recall it took about 2 months but eventually the pool company owner (the expert) came out and looked at it and adjusted all of the...

    New Pebble Sheen - Quality Concerns

    I didn't get a resolution. With water in it I don't really notice it. I've given up.

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    I did a brief search on Youtube for how to measure flow with a pool pump and didn't get a lot of answers. What is a practical way to do what you suggested and what equipment will I need to buy? Or is there a guide you can point me to?

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    That's what I thought I did. I went to this page (Contact Us Residential | Hayward Pool Products) and click on "Contact Us." Is there a different way to "file a claim?" Because that's how I got the response to take my pump in to a service center.

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    Thanks, I finally found the tag. The reply from Hayward was: That's a lot of work to cut pipes, disconnect the wires, and remove the unit when my PB could be correct that the noise level is normal. :poop:

    Thanks, mine doesn't look like that. Aside from the one that says Tristar VS 950, the 2 labels are:

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    I struggled to figure out how to "make a claim" but after more digging found the contact support form. The place I was stuck they were trying to refer me to a service center, so I'll see what they say. Then I struggled to locate the model and serial number. I still don't think I have the right...

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    I don't know how to tell the RPM, maybe it says on the remote but I set it by %. Ambient noise level was 32dB, when I turn on the pump and hold the mic right above the pump it's just over 70dB. A few feet away it drops to about 60dB. It's a cheap app though, I'm not sure how they calibrate it...

    Hayward Tristar VS 950 Pump Really Loud

    I'm not sure it works like that. Their website say, "For direct, on-site product support, please contact your local seller or installer for assistance. If you need to schedule a service call or repair, you can use the servicer locator to find a local Hayward Authorized Service Center." Should I...
