Rating: NON-continous use
Reviewer: Julian R., - View all my reviews
For a NON CONTINOUS USE compressor the Max air 35 is reliable and relatively quiet. I use this compressor on an island in Georgian Bay and have yet to recieve a complaint from the neighbours about noise level..... thats bc it is not that noisy. Make sure you place the compressor on sturdy ground so that the metal casing does not rattle. Also make sure you buy multiple air filters bc you need to replace these every 10 hours. If you are not electrically savy then consider hiring someone to do the configuration for you or purchase the gasoline version. Also ensure you have a 30 amp line running to wherever you want to put this guy bc if not you will increase your costs.

Reviewer: Mark Swenson,
The Max Air 35 met or exceeded our expectations. And was in fact faster at filling dive tanks quicker than the large compressor at the Two Harbors dive shop. The motor is a bit noisy, so be kind to your neighbors.

Reviewer: larry higdon,
this compressor is idea for your own personal use. easy starting, no hastle and user friendly. i would highly recommend this compressor for anyone who fills and uses 2 to 10 tanks of air per day. maybe the only down side would be that the unit is fairly loud so dont expect to fill in your back yard during late hours, your neighbours may not like it.

Reviewer: Andrew B Mendenhall MD,
We are very satisfied with the compressor for delivering a timely and clear air fill. We use our compressor aboard a 28 foot sailboat in the Sea of Cortez. It is a bit bulkyfor our small boat but we constructed a storage box that keeps toes and feet from finding the compressor as we move about down below. (doubles as a seat in the cockpit when at anchor) It is important to factor in the expendables section in terms of use and cost. We recommend getting a few extra filters and some compressor oil, change regularly and consult the thermometer and manufacturers guide to determine the expected lifespan for the filters lest you find yourself with the inability to fill lots of tanks. Exceeds expectations in all!

If this compressor is used to charge Nitrox cylinders with just air, do the cylinders have to be O2 cleaned after or are the oils/filters compatible with Nitrox?

Nick:
I am looking for a compressor to be installed on a boat. Only place big enough is the engineroom. Whats your opinion on an 220v aplication being used when engineroom cool and air braught in from outside. Its a spacious stand up engineroom on large sportsfish.
Darrick (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
Hello Nick, if you are going to be running it down in the engine room. Then you are going to need to make sure the the exhaust from anything be taken inside the air intake of the compressor. As long as that happens I do not see why you would not be able to fill a few tanks. Just to let you know this compressor is not designed to be running on a continued base. If you are only filling a few tank then turning it off to let it cool down before running it again. If you would like to place an order or have any other questions please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
