I keep reading that these pumps are so quiet you have to touch them to know they’re running. Mine is 70db (via a couple different apps) and audible clearly from way over 100 feet away with a rather high pitched frequency. Sounds rather like a vacuum cleaner and is easily that loud.
I’m annoyed after two days. Can’t imagine years of this.
Do flow and/or rpm settings make that much difference? Pool pro set a 50% flow rate for day and a 30% flow for overnight.
I’ll contact Pentair too, but this is nuts! I found an older brochure for Intelliflos that tout 45 dbs. Didn’t see anything like that in the Intelliflo3 docs. Could they have changed that much!???
