The reason you were getting a little bit of a mushy answer from Peter at the office is that we really haven’t done decibel checks on our pumps. We just say “like a drill”, so people get a general sense that they’re fairly quiet. But for you I pulled out a compact 150 pump and did a test. At roughly 2 feet I got 65 Db. At about 8 feet I got 58db. Do be aware that all our pumps are auto self cycling which means it will be turned off most of the time you would be pressing and only run occasionally for a minute or less to recycle back up to full pressure and then shut off again. The compact 300 will be a little bit more but I didn’t have an assembled one this afternoon so I couldn’t test it.
