We have a 1 year old pool built with TSP support and managed the TSP way. All is good with the pool and we can’t wait for the weather to warm up. It has a 6 foot wide 18 “ high waterfall feature powered by a MaxFlo XL pump with an output valve to throttle flow. It works great but runs louder than we would like. Depending where you are, you hear the pump more than the waterfall. I have been thinking about replacing the pump with a MaxFlo VS pump as I know how quiet our Variable Speed filter pump runs. But I am worried that I would need to run them waterfall pump at such a high speed to get the flow we want that it wouldn’t be quiet. I have tried doing pump head calculations but not sure what I am doing and I don’t want to make an expensive mistake. We tried a sound deadening cover on the pump but not much help. Thanks for your advice.
