For indoor use within a workshop or an industrial unit where the amount of available space is limited, then a vertical air compressor is often the best choice available.  These compressors take up a great deal less space on the floor than other models, and can still provide all of the air power that you need to power a range of tools within the workshop, allowing you and your colleagues to carry out a wide range of different jobs.

For many workshop owners, the principal factor that stands in the way of them installing an air compressor within their premises is the fact that it will take up a great deal of space.  A large horizontal model can take up the same amount of space as a car, and this can have a major impact on the room available in many auto shops.  The advantage of a vertical air compressor is that it takes up much less floor space than the alternative without compromising on the power available.  Thanks to the use of electrical power rather than relying on petrol, they can provide you with power on demand and allow your staff to simply switch on the air when they need it.

A vertical air compressor is a permanent addition to your workshop, and once bolted into place and connected to an air supply; it will be able to provide the compressed air required by a whole range of different tools within your workshop such as impact wrenches and many more different tools.  Workers can simply plug their tools into the air pipes around the workshop, and get access to a supply of compressed air that will keep their tools going, and enable staff to carry out their duties to the best of their abilities at all times..

Depending on your exact needs, there are a number of different vertical air compressors available, and these are generally designed to meet with the requirement of all levels of business.  Choosing the right model for your needs will largely be a matter of determining what the load on the system will be in terms of the number of people using the air supply at any one time.

A model like the IMC Belaire 80 Gallon Single Phase Elite vertical air compressor has been designed with reliability and power in mind.  With a 5HP motor and an 80 gallon tank on hand to provide you with air on demand, it features a number of safety additions such as a fully enclosed belt guard.  Each unit is supplied fully tested filled with oil, and once it has been installed, is ready to use as soon as the power switch is thrown.  Able to provide 175 PSI and up to 18.5CFM, it is ideal for a smaller workshop.   It is designed with its size in mind, and is 39 inches wide, 24 inches deep, and 77 inches high, so it can fit easily into any workshop.  The units are available from Ref Hill Supply for just $2,440.99.

One of the main concerns for any business that is considering making a change from electrical to air power for their tools is the worry that a fault with their compressor could lead to them being unable to carry out any work.  Thankfully, electrically powered vertical air compressors are extremely reliable.  By incorporating maintenance friendly additions such as a low oil level warning and a magnetic starter into the design, and backing up the reliability with a 2 year warranty, you can buy one of these units with confidence that it will keep your workshop fully powered and operating at the most efficient levels possible for a long time.
