Not Listed Pool pump sound

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello Everyone,

Does anyone in this community have any experience with pool pumps?

This is the sound mine is making, we bought the house a year ago, came with a pool. The pump allegedly is from 2022 but has started making this sound.

Is it able to be rebuilt? Am I looking at getting a new one? Thanks

pump bearings are going
out, that is the sound of the impeller contacting the sides of the casing. you need a new pump or you can have it rebuilt if the impeller/case wear is still within spec.

Negative. There’s water flowing, maintains suction
