Apple Roof Cleaning (813) 655-8777 Report post Posted October 7, 2013 I wish http://www.smittybiltdepot.com/Smittybilt-Winches-and-Winch-Accessories/5-65-CFM-Air-Compressor.aspx?t_c=18&t_s=190&t_pt=100437&t_pn=S%2fB2781 But there are some 12 volt air compressors, the trouble is, they need 100 amps! Electric air compressors are much cheaper then gas, but then you got to plug them in somewhere, or, use a generator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andy hinson Report post Posted October 7, 2013 5.65 CFM is that the compressor you speak of. Thats the one that pulled up. A battery should run it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, that is it Andy, but one has to be careful of CFM Ratings! 5.65 CFM of air at 10 PSI aint shit! We are looking for 5 CFM at 80 PSI! This compressor does not say what pressure the CFM rating is at! 1 Richard Frisson reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apple Roof Cleaning (813) 655-8777 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 image.jpg I see that, but it still does not say if it has that amount of CFM at 80 to 90 PSI or not. We need about 5 CFM of air at 80 PSI to run a small air pump, for roof cleaning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xtreme1 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 What is the best air pump we can buy for the money that will handle well with SH? PS I am thinking of purchasing the Makita MAC5501G air compressor to run a pump 12.5 cfm at 100 psi 1 Apple Roof Cleaning (813) 655-8777 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
