For many people, the idea of a home air compressor is a new one and one that leads to a number of questions. After all, aren’t air compressors those huge and loud machines in the mechanic’s garage or at a gas station meant to fill your car tires? Well, yes, those are of course air compressors, but not home ones. So what do people mean when they mention a “home air compressor”?
Generally speaking – and fairly obviously – a home air compressor typically refers to smaller, less powerful, less durable air compressors meant for non-constant household usage. The use of these small household compressors is relatively new, only developing over the last decade into a significant market, though today almost all of the major manufacturers have hopped into this new market and offer some sort of home air compressor.
Perhaps the biggest driver for this new market has been the rise of the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) home improvement movement. Today many people consider doing their own home maintenance or home improvement projects a hobby in its own right, leading to an explosion of DIY stores and home improvement centers as well as an increased demand for user friendly tools and materials. When looking for user friendly tools, pneumatic (air driven) tools have been very popular, especially as nail guns and paint sprayers; though many others pneumatic tools are also popular.
For most DIY purposes, the air compressor needs to be electric, it needs to be portable, it needs at least a small tank, and it needs to generate at least 90 psi (pounds per square inch of pressure). This has led to a huge number of small, home air compressors that are specifically designed to meet these DIY specifications. In fact, there are so many of these compressors on the market today that the price has fallen dramatically, which may lead to an even larger market as more and more people can afford a decent home air compressor.
A home air compressor can also be used for many other purposes beyond running pneumatic tools like nail guns or paint sprayers. Obviously they can very helpful for topping up (or even filling from flat) various vehicle tires (car, bicycle, etc.) and other inflatable items around the home (mattresses, children’s toys, etc.). There are also a number of more creative uses as well. For example, compressed air can be an excellent way to clean hard to reach spots around the house, can serve a number of maintenance needs, and even can be used to help clear drains.
As the price of home air compressors continues to come down, producers and reseller will continue to come up with new and more creative applications for them around the house. The fact remains, pneumatic energy is fairly clean and efficient (which is why it is preferred in large-scale industry) and can be applied in many ways around the home. As a consequence, it can be safely assumed that more and more proposals on ways to use them around the home will continue to be made on a regular basis. It is entirely possible that within a few years, having a household air compressor will be commonplace.
