I hate hearing my water pump, especially when it's loud and obnoxious. It was suggested early on to replace the pump that came in the coach, that was probably a mistake but I did and have been on a mission since to find the perfect water pump. I've tried rubber pads, noise dampening, etc. Pumps either later came out with vibration dampening grommets or I just didn't come across the right pump until my latest which is the REMCO 55-AQUAJET-ARV 5 GPM water pump to replace my 3.4 GPM and also try an accumulator tank. @NWIP had the great advice of not over tightening the mounting bolts and voila, I have a silent and wonderful water pump. The simple things, but it makes such a huge difference as I'm one that prefers keeping the pump on all of the time as it will only come on when needed if city water is pushing enough pressure. But this video was on my YouTube feed last night, I watched part of it, but it may be of interest to others as no one should be hearing the water pump if done right.
