I’ve been using a Neptune dos for a while now, but it has to be the most annoying pump. Way to loud for in a living space, especially running it for Kalkwasser.

How loud is a Versa or a Kamoer continuous duty type pump?

Agreed, I have a versa and a dos. With the versa I do 1.5 gallons of kalk a day, continuous and it runs insanely slow and makes no noise. Even when I have tested it at high speeds it doesn’t even compare to the dos in terms of sound. More of a whine at super high speeds compared to the rumble that is a dos

Bought the DOS for awcs from the basement. Could not stand the whine. On the shelf.
Bought 2 versas, can't hear them.
I have the brs 2 ml/min pumps on apex timers. They are also quiet, but must be checked for flow initially, but are consistent.
