I just picked up a 2013 32buds last week. I want to take a look at my water pump.It seems extremely loud. Where is it?

JJMcK1, Can you trace the noise to it's location? The pumps are normally loud but there are a few steps you can take to help reduce the rumble. Once you've found the pump, you can add a flexible line between the pump outlet and the pex connector. You can find a short length in any home center or hardware store. Next, make sure anywhere the pex lines touch each other is insulated by encasing it in that cheap gray foam pipe insulation. Also use the same stuff anywhere the pex lines go through a wall if they are touching a wall or anything else. The vibration against walls and the other piping is what makes most of the noise. The flex pipe at the pump will help dramatically.
