Goodyear - Air Compressors - The Home Depot

Question 1

Which tank style is best for bigger jobs?

Accepted Answer

For high-demand applications, you'll want to consider horizontal or double-stack air compressors. Horizontal compressors are known for providing consistent pressure over time, while a double-stack style provides increased air capacity to tackle bigger projects.

Question 2

What does "CFM" mean?

Accepted Answer

CFM stands for Cubic Feet per Minute and refers to the volume of air the compressor can deliver at a specific pressure, like 90 PSI. A higher CFM rating means the compressor can power air tools that require a lot of air for longer periods, so it's best to know the CFM requirement for the tools you will be using.

Question 3

What's the benefit of getting an air compressor with a higher PSI?

Accepted Answer

An air compressor with a higher PSI, such as 175 PSI or even 200 PSI, can be a great investment. It means you'll have a larger reserve of compressed air and can potentially run tools for longer periods without the compressor constantly cycling on. This allows for more consistent performance, especially for demanding tasks like heavy-duty sanding or operating multiple tools simultaneously.

Question 4

What key factors should influence my decision when buying an air compressor?

Accepted Answer

Consider your intended use and work environment. We carry air compressors with features such as oil free compressor, wheels.

Question 5

I see some compressors say "oil-less". Does that mean they never need any maintenance?

Accepted Answer

While "oil-less" compressors don't require oil changes, they still benefit from occasional check-ups and filter replacements to ensure optimal performance. If you prioritize convenience and want to eliminate the hassle of oil maintenance, an oil-less model is right for you!

Question 6

Why is air compressor tank capacity important?

Accepted Answer

Air compressor tank capacity refers to the volume of compressed air that the compressor's storage tank can hold, typically measured in gallons. This tank acts as a reservoir, storing compressed air produced by the pump. Its primary purpose is to provide air buffer, allowing the compressor motor to run less frequently. When you use an air tool, you draw air from this reserve. Choose from capacities such as 10 gal., 26 gal., and 8 gal..
