With a regulator on it.- A BIG tank.......with a regulator on it.
- Are you using an RV Blow Out Plug to connect the air line to your water line?
- I have a portable air tank. I just put 40 PSI in it to blow out my lines. If I run out of air in the portable tank then I just fill it back up. I have a small TT but, it never takes more then 2 tanks.
- Bypass the water heater, or you will need a lot of air.
- I just set the compressor to 45 psi.

Not if you drain it first. That is what I do and then use air to blow out the rest.- I try to keep it below 30 PSI which is lower than most city water connections. You don't need that much pressure to blow them out, and a few remaining droplets won't hurt the fittings.
