Air Compressor plumbing

I have a 60 gal compressor out back, why, because I wanted it. Got it on a really good deal at HD a while back. It's powered up but still on the shipping pallet. I intend to mount it on the concrete (and covered) pad behind the shop and plumb it inside my shed.

Sorry don't have a current photo of the back of the shed but the compressor is where the wheel barrel is propped up at.


I'm back and forth about what to use for plumbing. I got a plumber buddy out west who tells me Aquapex but my issue with that is I have to buy the cripping tool and it ain't cheap and I really do not see myself doing any more plumbing.

I'm smoking over this RapidAir Maxline solution, think there is others but this seems to rate high. https://www.rapidairproducts.com/maxline

At my old house the previous owners had a compressor in the shop that used black pipe. I really haven't priced that out and I'm wondering if I'm not putting too much thought into this. Black pipe is easy to get a hold of but not easy to custom cut.

I figured yous guys would have some opinions out there in tundraland. Help me spend some money, but not much please.

 

I would use the product you showed, but I would put an enclosure around the compressor. Pex will deteriorate in exposed exterior applications, I bet the product you showed will too. But those push fittings work great, I used them in my truck for the air compressor. I’ve seen full kits on Amazon that I’ve been thinking of using that include pipe, fittings and air chucks to plumb my shop.

 

Thanks Geno
This is what I keep coming back to.

Only issue I have is I don't NEED 100 foot, the shed is only 28 foot long. guess I could have that spare pipe if needed.

 

I dig it. Run it on both sides of the shed! The more places you have to access air, the better. Plus you can plug in more than one tool if required.

 

I know it's months late sorry,I finally figured out there's more to this forum other than trucks.
Well where you are are there rental shops you could rent from,or your buddy could he Fed X it to you,then vise versus would that be more cost effective?

 

My bud is full time plumber, doubt he'd lend out his tools besides, I'm done.

I Forgot I had this thread, I'll share what it looks like now.





Passed leak test when fully pressurized so I'm right pleased with myself.

If you're wondering about the second pressure gauge and that manifold it's for airbrushing scale models. No I never grew out of that.

 

Lol air brushing, now your bringing me back to the day when that was the shit!
LMAO.
Great job looks like your all set now.
