Shop air compressor wont put out more than 110 PSI
Ed,
I went way overboard with my shop compressor, but I never have to worry about lack of pressure or volume. I bought an upright 6hp 175psi twin cylinder machine capable of about 15cfm at 90psi, IIRC. I have it hard plumbed into the garage, so I have hoses and air ports in several locations. If you use the sch 80 PVC, it will handle the normal pressures and is easy to install. Expensive, slightly, but I'll take it with me to the next house and never wear it out. I can run anything I want. I probably have ~$1500 in the total install, including the breaker box and wiring, pvc, hoses, connections, the unit itself, etc. As far as I'm concerned, it was (and still is) a very cheap investment that continually pays me back. And it only takes up slightly more floor space than most roll arounds, as it sits on a small pallet in the back of the garage. |
