Compressor set ups

[Tremor14]

ok im learning, i need a 2 stage. whats the diff between 1 and 2 stage?

Two stage will compress the same air twice. Basically it will cram more air in the tank. Most two stage compressor setups for a typical garage will shut off when the tanks psi hit about 175.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong please. Doesn't a two stage create more moisture due to the second stage of compression?

[Tremor14]

that would make sense, but given my application its irrelevant, i saw the way thisshop was plumbed/layed out and this compressor is more than i will ever need.

more pressure = more heat.

Single or 3 phase?

I believe its single phase, but i am the furthest thing from an electrician. Even if this is something I wouldn't be able to use at my house, my uncle has a shop in hempstead that I would take it to.

Theres a place in Irving that carries compressor heads and compressors too. It's on Nursery just north of Irving blvd. on the right. Not sure if hes still there I haven't been there in awhile. They rebuild them too, so then there's that.
