What is the quietest portable air compressor?
7 CommentsI'm looking for a portable name brand air compressor such as a twin tank style. Hitachi, porter cable, and dewalt are what I'm looking for. I don't know how to judge loudness in decibels so what is the quietest? And is oil-less better than oil ran? I'd like as high of cfm as possible to run atleast one framing nailer with no wait on recharging. Please someone explain all of this to me and give me your best opinion on each compressor. Thankyou
So for people are going for the oil units as opposed to the oil-less. Do they work well when its cold? My whole concern with the loudness is that when I'm inside an enclosed house or in the basement and that noisy compressor kicks on, it just makes my ears ring and it is sooo annoying. I have never seen a belt ran compressor as a "new" portable unit. I actually can stand to hear those run, they sound kinda like a steam engine.Porter Cable Framing Nail Gun Nailer & Air Compressor

I have used just about every kind of compressor made due to city laws about noise. The best I can tell you is a speed air . 3 hp with belt drive oil type compressor on a 10 gal tank It is portable and its weighs about 40 pounds. Thats your best deal as far as noise and one that will last

i have a many compressor. i am a contractor. The quietest compressor i have is also the smallest. it is an emglo mini. I don’t think they make it any more so you may have to go to ebay. It can power a framing nail gun fine.

I have seen allot of them at work and everyone likes them
dewalt dual tank. . . stick with oil running units. . . they last longer.
if your running a nail gun these small units are fine but if you are going to run any type of air tool like a paint gun or any other hand tool like that youll need a huge compressor and tank. . . . like one of those bolt in units

I have owned a craftsman professional unit for 4 years and have been very pleased with the performance. It has a 4 gallon capacity and does not cycle as often as some units. They have improved the design since my purchase and the price can’t be beat.
1 hp, 4 gal. air compressor with a cast iron pump cylinder. Direct drive oil lubricated pump. Induction motor. Detachable compressor unit rolls anywhere. Includes 17 piece accessory kit with 25 ft. air hose.
Price is $129 vs similar model from dewalt for $220

six of one half dozen of the other, most are probably made by same manufacturer like appliances are. . . . buy more hoses put the darn thing outside. . . chain it up, you’ll know it’s gone when the nails don’t come out!!!!!
used them all!
They seem to come on just as the phone rings or when your about to say WATCH-OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!to no avail. . . .left mine on-site at a reno. job, it came on in the middle of the night. . . slow-leak. . . scared the “beegeesus”, out of the lady of the house, she called the cops. . . I felt like the idiot. . I am. .
