    Husky C301H 30 Gal Portable Air Compressor

    The only "benefit" is lowering the pitch. Depends on your hearing and preferences if that is a good, bad, indifferent thing. Instead of a high musical note, the sound has a lower deeper tone. The dbA measured on my iPhone with UI SPL at the same location and conditions, yielded same dbA with...

    But wait, I have an alternative hypothesis regarding the benefits of air intake extensions. Short woodwinds and short horns have higher pitch.

    Husky C301H 30 Gal Portable Air Compressor

    Breaking in. The instruction manual reads to let it run for 20 min with full valves open. Forum members - not the manual - say to change the oil after the break-in.

    Husky C301H 30 Gal Portable Air Compressor

    With the air compressor in the garage, positioned under the hoist, using motorcycle tie downs, I tied the C301H to the hook of the hoist, lifted it off the truck bed, drove the truck out of the garage. The air compressor was left hanging.

    Husky C301H 30 Gal Portable Air Compressor

    The C301H on the bed of the pickup truck was to high for the garage door. I padded the Husky and the tailgate, and leaned the air compressor over so that it cleared the garage door.

    Show Me Your Air Compressor And DB

    it is about db. Low db makes it "green." I make no accusation of ripoff. My question is about how the lower db is achieved. The ABS cap? If only the ABS cap then I can make my own. You can't answer the question.

    Review LEED criteria regarding "green" and "sustainable." This thread is not about Belaire. It is about air compressor DB. Belaire has db, and manuf claims a low db. Low db appears to be obtained by placement of an ABS cap on top. So this thread can include Belaire. Now because of your reply...
