Default MAG 7 in trouble???????

my mag 7 pump seems to run fine, but the second my AC unit cuts in or my vacum cleaner it starts doing this clunking sound in short burts....anyone have a similar problem? is it the pump is just struggling for power????

thanks

Prosnow, can you make your avatar smaller as it really messes with the layout when it is that big.

well if its only a week old I'd be looking into plugging the pump into a different circuit than your vaccuum cleaner/AC unit
