Preventative Maintenance
What size portable air compressor do I need for my tools?
The size of the air compressor depends on the specific tools you plan to use. Light-duty tools like nail guns or inflators require compressors with lower CFM (cubic feet per minute) ratings, typically between 2-4 CFM, while heavier-duty tools like impact wrenches or spray guns may need compressors with 5-10 CFM or more.
It’s important to check the requirements of your tools and choose a compressor with sufficient power.
How do I maintain a portable air compressor?
Regular maintenance includes draining the tank after each use to prevent moisture buildup, checking and changing the oil (for oil-lubricated compressors), cleaning or replacing the air filter, and inspecting hoses and fittings for leaks.
We also provide preventative maintenance for equipment as needed.
Our team has sold and serviced air compressors near Peosta, Iowa since 1995.
Choosing the right air compressor depends on several key factors. This depends on your application, performance capabilities, and the work environment.
You will want to consider whether you need a mobile unit for various places, or a unit that stays in one place.
Additionally, consider if there is a power source available. Using the equipment in the same place with reliable electricity means an electric unit could work best. If you are needing more mobility, or do not have a reliable power source, a gas-powered model would be the way to go.
Considering the pressure requirements of the pneumatic tools you are using is also important. The compressor must be able to meet the PSI needs of the tools. Take notice of the CFM (cubic feet per minute) rating on the equipment to determine its strength. If you need assistance finding the right unit for you, contact us and we will be glad to help.
