Electric Air Compressor Selection from Compressed Air Systems

An electric air compressor may be the affordable, capable compressed air solution many business and homeowners haven’t considered.  This is because there is a common misconception that electric compressors don’t supply adequate power necessary for most applications. However, the real misconception is usually in the amount of power businesses and homeowners realistically need to use their air tools or for whatever other functions they use compressed air for.

Many people overestimate the horsepower they need, and then overspend on pricey gas- or diesel-powered models. While a gas or diesel compressor can offer more power than an electric air compressor, these types of compressors are better suited for much larger operations.  Many normal applications of a compressor can be successfully and efficiently completed with an electric compressor.

Compressed Air Systems has been in the compressor business for more than 45 years, so we have the knowledge to help you determine whether you need a gas compressor or if an electric air compressor can accomplish the same job and cost you less.

We offer a wide array of electric compressors and other models, including:

·         Gasoline compressors

·         Diesel compressors

·         Reciprocating compressors

·         Rotary screw compressors

·      12v Compressors

·         Oil-free compressors

·         And more

In addition, an electric air compressor doesn’t give off the harmful exhaust that a gas compressor produces, which makes it ideal for indoor operations. And, because you just plug it in rather than constantly refill it with gasoline, it is exceptionally easy to operate.
