Fastening of vibration dampers in concrete slab
Hello,
I have poured a new slab in the basement and am planning to reattach the water pump. Since the whole house vibrated when it started, I thought I'd try putting a couple of vibration dampers between instead of screwing it directly onto the slab as it was before. The question is how to best attach them without adding too much height for various reasons, including the fact that the pump only has two screw holes so it needs to be propped up at the other end to the same height.
I was considering whether the vibration damper can be set directly in a drilled hole with a chemical anchor, but the screw seems a bit short to get a good hold...
Are there better (lower) ways than hitting a pin expander into the slab, putting on a coupling nut, and then threading in the vibration damper?

Or change the model. Something like this and regular plugs and screws?

There is also expandergäng to use in the concrete slab.
