Hi Guys,

Mitch with Rapidair here, we've been busy the last 6 months being our new Rapidair System Designer. Answer some basic questions about the building and compressor and the app recommends which size of piping to use based on the system (Maxline or Fastpipe) that you want to go with. Please feel free to jump on here and layout your shop or work building, adding drops and other accessories and then see it in 3D, while adding the parts to a parts list. The app isn't completely done yet as we are working to link it to our online webstore where you can checkout online.

For now, after you create a layout, and see your parts list, you can email me at [email protected] to get a complete quote with shipping or if you have any questions about design or our products and I can view them remotely. Please watch the into video as it helps immensely. There are other "tip" videos on the lower left.

Im also looking for some feed back at what you like and didn't like.

Happy Designing!

There is, doesn't work. Clicked on everything I could click, twice. Couldn't get rid of the video and move onto the next part of the design process.

Not a burning issue, my Rapidair system is already in place, I just wanted to see how bad my design was....

"X" to close Youtube works fine for me.

How are you figuring flow rate from compressor horsepower? Just playing with the numbers it looks to be around nameplate cfm with no allowance for high demand, intermittent use, tools like impacts.

Typical compressor output is 3.8 cfm per horsepower.
Example:
(7.5 hp x 3.8 cfm= 28.5 cfm)

We always try to make sure the Piping isn't the limiting factor, so if your compressor puts out 28 CFM, we want to be able to flow more than that in any point of the system.
