:?: Any views on the topic of vibrating pumps.

The pump vibrates and is heard all over the house. It is very loud.

The boiler is quiet and the radiators work fine.

When it appears to then pump water into the hot water tank it also makes a lot of noise. This has been getting louder over the last two months.

Loud enough to distract from reading a newspaper or book in any room.

The vibration in the pump what causes this?

There are no pressure indicators on the boiler that I can find. The radiators were bled and the system is designed to automatically fill from the FE if I'm correct. So lack of water in the system should not be the problem. If the FE is indicated - I don't know where it is.

:idea: Possible problems or solutions please.

CH pumps dont vibrate they rotate and an impeller pushes water round the system.

Most modern pumps have three speed settings. The normal setting is number "2".

A common cause of excessive noise is unclipped pipes resonating.

Do you mean "appear" visibly or metaphorically?
What hot water tank?
Is that the vibration noise?
What do you mean by "

"
Do you mean there is no noise on "CH only"
Or do you just mean they get hot?
