Hello,
Recently I’ve noticed a high-pitched buzzing or screaming sound from my pool pump. I believe it’s the bearings but not sure because it’s not consistent. If I turn the pump off and back on the sound disappears.
Saturday was the first day when I turned off the pump and back on the sound came back after a few hours but now it’s been close to 24 hours and pump is normal.
Could it be there was something stuck? Or is it the start of the bearings needing to be replaced.
The cost of replacing the barrings (can’t do it myself) is almost as much as a brand new pump but before I decide to fork out $700 for a new one wanted to see if anyone else had a similar problem.
Note: Basket is cleaned out regularly/daily
