Landscaping air compressors typically produce 20 to 50 CFM at 50 psi. Smaller pipes tend to require less air, while larger pipes require more. It’s important to choose an air compressor with the right amount of CFM, as too little CFM will leave water in the pipes, while too much can cause permanent damage to pipes and sprinkler heads.
Landscapers will benefit from rotary screw air compressors that are vehicle mounted, lightweight, and compact in size. Vehicle-mounted air compressors ensure compressed air is always available on demand, while a lightweight and compact system frees up space and payload for other landscaping tools and equipment.
VMAC offers several air compressors systems that are well suited for landscaping and winterization work, including G30 gas powered air compressors, D60 diesel driven air compressors, and UNDERHOOD® engine-mounted air compressors.
“Before we got the UNDERHOOD® Air Compressor we used a truck-mounted gas powered air compressor. I like that we don’t have to worry anymore about having gas for a separate engine, or taking up space in the back of our truck. With the UNDERHOOD, you just push the button to start, and get continuous air right away, even in the colder winter months.”
