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. With use, the belt will stretch, causing the belt to ride more smoothly over the rollers. It might appear that one Treadmill is louder than another. There are many reasons for this and may not be due to a defect.
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. This is due to many acoustic differences. A number of precautions can be taken to reduce noise. For instance, a heavy rubber mat can help reduce reverberation through the floor. And, finally, if a fitness product is placed close to a wall, there will be 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.
