I'm thinking about getting a Pan World 50x-x, runs 90 volts and pushes 1100 gph. The only concern is noise. I currently run an iwaki and it makes a really loud whirling sound. Does anyone have any experience with the pan world pump??? Thanks

I have the coral life brand that is the exact pump as that just branded different and they seem pretty nice well built and easy to clean.

So no problems with noise at all?? My sump is under my cabinet which is only about 5 feet away from the couch. I'm sure it'll make some noise but I just wanted to get a decent idea of the db's it'll make.
thanks for the input guyz.

Hi, DJChance.
I have the Pan World 100PXX and its noisier than I would like. Nice machine, but I wish it were quieter.

Good luck,
Steve
