Why is my pump noisier than usual?

Pumps and pump systems are highly durable when correctly installed and maintained. However, you may still experience problems, as any machinery with moving components and continuous usage is subject to wear and tear. Most pumps operate quietly and efficiently, so when a pump starts making an unusual level of noise it usually raises concern. A…
