I do not recommend blowing out potable water lines unless you have a clean air source. Normal air compressors will have rusty water and oil in the tank, that will get into your water system.
This is why I use an oilless compressor. And after each use of the compressor, there is a relief valve on the bottom where all moisture is blown out. It's a 6gal Porter Cable, $92.00 bucks from Amazon.
I use a high quality bicycle pump. No chance of contamination nor over pressuring of lines. It works surprisingly well.
