Buying Used Air Compressors in PA can certainly be a money saver and great for a smaller companies bottom lines. Many companies get rid of their compressors because they have simply outgrown them, not because there is anything wrong with them. However, there still are a few things that need to be watched for before buying a used compressor.
* Noise is a big factor when buying a used air compressor. While more noise generally indicates higher rpm’s, the level of noise can get to a point to where it is indicative of an underlying problem. Ask the seller about any issues they may have experienced if the noise level seems unusually high.
* Make sure the sizes of the Used Air Compressors in PA being purchased are appropriate for their intended use. As previously stated, many companies outgrow the size of their air compressors and choose to purchase larger ones. Do research about the intended purchase, so you will know going in that the compressor is big enough to handle the job.
* If the air compressor being bought from Air Center Inc. is very large, ask about the best way to move it around. Many larger models of compressors come with pre-installed wheels so the owner can move it necessary. Check to see if the wheels are all still intact and in good working order. On the other hand, very large models may not come with wheels at all as they are not really meant to be moved around. In these cases, a reliable way to get the compressor to where it is going will certainly be needed.
* Check the compressor for any dents or punctures. If the compressor has been punctured, it is essentially useless except in very rare cases of expensive repair. A dented compressor may still be operable, but the integrity of the metal walls has been compromised, so it is probably worth it to move on and look for another used option.
