Pentair SuperFlo makes loud noise..

[surfdog]

Hey-
My Pentair SuperFlo pump works fine but seems to be making a loud noise. Not sure if it is a bearing or what..
It's been making that noise for some time now. Please help.

Here's a video: http://youtu.be/oJ7ureskZtY

Thanks

Sounds more like it might be an imbalance in the centrifugal switch. You can take off the motor end cap and inspect the switch for any debris or a bad spring. Sometimes they just need to have a little lube so they move freely.
