Pool Pump Makes Strange/Loud Noise

[sevver]

I would say that the grinding indicates that it is going to fail, you can either buy a new one, or use it until it fries itself, at which point you have to buy a new one. That is probably what I would do, but I like my money.

I like my money to, anyone else have an ideA?

Could be the bearings, when they go you will hear a screeching or whinning noise. I guess it is possible it could be a "grinding" noise as well. If your mechanically minded take it apart and check the bearings. If not, evaluate the cost of servicing the unit against running it into the ground. Could be something entirely different as well :-)

Aight ill check, i dont really want to get it service cause this is not even a year old, anyone else have an idea?

Tear it apart and look at it. Or else let it be, if you can take it apart, there may be something broken off in there that just needs to get removed, like a broken piece of plastic from a gear or something. Don't damage any gaskets or O-Rings in the process, if you aren't mechanically inclined and don't have any self confidence then leave it alone.
