Hey guys,

I just bought a reeflo hammerhead pump for my 450 dt. I've heard of using mouse pads to dampen vibration, what else do you recommend using ?

Thanks,

Jim

pool rubber, its thick & strong

Mouse pads and short pieces of flexible tubing on the suction and discharge to break up vibration and sound transmission. Rigid piping is horrible for transmitting vibrations.

Yeah, its uses a wide ranging,on the roll or offcuts & its good in stopping kids from slipping and cracking their heads around pools & wet area's.

Ok - we have a pool and I had never heard of it!! Of course, there is nothing wrong with a few cracked heads on occasion - especially if it is the little sh-- from down the street whom really irks you!! LOL

you could put the pump in a small vented box and line the box with dynomat. it is used in vehicles to dampen vibration and sound.
