Exactly....the pump discharge line should be a flex hose vs rigid pipe.
Also secure the piping so that is doesn't move around banging on inside of cabinet.
You can also install a small accumulator tank in discharge line. That will minimize the pump cycling times which helps quiet it down.
Pump should be mounted on rubber feet....if loose or too tight it will be nosier.
Added a circle of hose before and after water pump to help isolate the pump pulsations. Added a accumulator tank. Plus had rubber feet on the pump. Now you can hardly hear the pump inside the coach. If your pump doesn't have rubber feet use a computer mouse pad under the pump feet.
