Properly maintaining your compressors prevents potentially costly repairs in the future. Depending on the type of compressor and its frequency of use, the recommended maintenance varies.
Compressor Maintenance
Preventative Maintenance
Preventative maintenance helps maximize the longevity of your compressor. Some of the most common types of preventative maintenance tasks we perform include:
- Oil filter changes
- Oil changes
- Water oil separator changes
We recommend scheduling preventative maintenance services at least twice a year for most compressors. Additionally, we typically recommend scheduling these services toward the beginning of the fall and spring seasons. However, autobody shops that continuously run their air compressors require more frequent maintenance checkups.
