    compressor duty cycle

    You don’t need a 100% duty cycle.waste of money. Just get a nice 3 phase with a 60 to 80 gallon tank. Many come with a starter and overload. If you run a big intake line, run it outside and most of the noise goes away.

    Seperated Chemicals

    Two things cause this, either cheap chemicals or water getting in to the tank. You can check the quality by just pouring some into a bucket and watching it. A simple check valve compatible with the chemical will stop any water back feeding.
