COMMON TREADMILL QUESTIONS
Q: Are the sounds my Treadmill makes normal?
A: All Treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the
belt riding over the rollers. This noise will diminish over time,
although it might not totally go away. Over time, the belt will
stretch, causing the belt to ride smoother over the rollers. It might
also appear that one Treadmill is louder than the other due to this
thumping, but that is due to the difference in belt tension.
Q: Why is the Treadmill I had delivered louder than the one at the
store?
A: All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom
because there is generally more background noise than in your
home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete
floor than on a wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat
will help reduce reverberation through the floor. And finally, if a
fitness product is placed close to a wall, there will more reflected
noise.
Q: When should I be worried about a noise?
A: As long as the sounds your Treadmill makes are no louder than
a normal conversational tone of voice, it is considered normal
noise. If your Treadmill is louder than this, you may want to call
your service technician. Sometimes an initial diagnosis can be
made over the phone.
