picking out right air compressor
I want to buy anew air compressor that will air up my tires on my phaeton motorhome. I usually run them at 110 psi. Will a 150 psi compressor be big enough?
Forum Discussion
When I was considering a compressor these were some of the questions I asked myself:
1) How much air do I typically aid?
2) How often do I need to add air?
3) What is wrong with using the on-board air?
4) Do I need to use air tools?
After thinking about it I figured out that I didn't need an air compressor at all as I only add less than 5 psig about twice a year and the on-board compressor is more than adequate for that need.
I do have a Viair portable left over from out TT days that I keep in the Jeep which also works well if needed. However I would not have bought one if I didn't already have it.
Just 50' or air hose and a good infiltrator is all that is necessary.
