What I think I'll do is get the ShurFlo and replace my FloJet now, and just keep my original FloJet as the spare.

That's what we did in our last rig and it's on the agenda for this summer in this one. I'll do the Shuffle, silencing kit and put a foam pad under it.

How much quieter is the ShurFlo than the FloJet? When the FloJet kicks on, it sounds like there's someone with a rivet gun working on my trailer.

I read someone used a mouse pad under the pump to help quiet it down. What kind of foam pad are you using? How thick?

Also read some people also use the ShurFlo Pressurized Accumulator Tank so that the pump doesn't kick on for small jobs, like washing hands for 8-10 seconds. Have you tried this?
