Water pump noisy...
Quick question.... My water pump is located under my kitchen sink area and it is pretty loud when it's being used. Instead of spending money on getting a new quieter pump, has anyone used insulation ...

What make of hose did you use?
Unfortunately many potable water hoses sold these days are braided for strength but that also makes them very stiff. I happened to have a 25' length that wasn't braided and therefore was quite pliable so I used that instead. Since my pump is a Shurflo that uses 1/2" NPT fittings I cut the 3/4" GH ends off the hose and used screw clamps to secure SHURflo Fittings to each end of the hose. I didn't know it at the time but Shurflo now also offers a Wingnut Swivel 3/4” GHT (M) x 1/2” NPT (F) adapter that would eliminate the need to cut the GH ends off the hose and if I were to do it again that's what I'd use.
You think a 10 or 15 foot would be as effective?
