Sears has a 12 gallon 3 HP compressor on sale for $269. Is this a good deal? Is it adequate to paint with? I looked at the required specs on some spray guns and only the most expensive one required 3

A 3 hp air compressor should be plenty for painting. most paint is put on at low pressure and uses very few cf/m. However if you plan to sandblast or run power tools like grinders or sanders I would

My 2HP Sears 20 gallon unit operates at 220v. I don't think you'll find a 2HP unit operationg at 110v, and if you do, the current requirements are likely to be higher than any typical house wiring f

I did some checking around about how big of a compressor you can use on 110v. It seems that it takes about 746 watts/HP. So, a 2HP compressor could be run on 110v if you have a 15 amp breaker on tha

On the subject of air compressors: The 748W/HP figure given by Mr. Schwarcz assumes a 100% efficient unit, which of course cannot be. My Sanborn 2HP compressor draws 24 amps to start. A 20AMP circuit

Keep in mind that 746 watts per HP is assuming 100% efficiency. Also, if you want to be cheap and still run air tools you can get a little dinky compressor (I have seen it done with a $30 inflate-you

Well, there are a # of factors to be considered when choosing a compressor. Hp is not enough, nor is the size of the tank. You also need to look at the CFM rating of the compressor to determine if i
