Re: Sweetwater Air Pumps

[George Slusarczuk <yurko at warwick_net>]

Hello Brian,

If the backpressure is too high, i.e. not enough bleed, the air will get
warm upon compression. I have observed that with the smallest pump,
SL22. Being small, SL22 probably does not heat up as much as a SL88.

Bleeding also reduced the noise, however little noise there was.

Best,

George
