How we repair your Air Compressor
An air compressor is a motor-driven pump that pressurizes air into a storage tank to power pneumatic tools, inflate tires and run spray equipment. An air compressor usually depends on a motor or lamps, timers or controls, safety switches and a power supply. A technician tests power and controls, motors or lamps, and safety devices.

Common Air Compressor problems we fix
What usually causes each symptom, and what our technician checks to confirm it.
Will not start
- Likely causes
- A tripped breaker or thermal overload, a failed pressure switch, a bad start capacitor, or a seized pump.
- What our technician checks
- The technician checks voltage at the motor, tests the pressure switch and capacitor and turns the pump by hand.
Trips the breaker
- Likely causes
- An undersized circuit or extension cord, a motor starting against pressure, or a failing motor.
- What our technician checks
- Amperage draw and the unloader operation are tested.
Safety valve popping
- Likely causes
- A pressure switch that does not shut the motor off, or a weak safety valve.
- What our technician checks
- The pressure switch cut-out pressure is measured and the safety valve is tested.
Water in the air lines
- Likely causes
- A tank that is not drained, humid conditions, or no water separator on the line.
- What our technician checks
- The tank drain and separator are inspected.
Runs but builds pressure slowly
- Likely causes
- A leaking check valve, worn piston rings or reed valves, a clogged intake filter, or air leaks in fittings.
- What our technician checks
- Pump output is tested and the tank, fittings and valves are leak-checked with soapy water.
Air leaking from the unloader valve
- Likely causes
- A failed check valve letting tank air back into the pump head.
- What our technician checks
- The check valve is inspected and tested.
Quick checks you can do safely
- Drain the tank with the drain valve after each use.
- Check the breaker and avoid long, thin extension cords.
- Clean or replace the intake filter.
- Listen for leaks at fittings and hoses with the compressor off.
- Check the oil level on oil-lubricated pumps.
Safety first: A compressed air tank stores a lot of energy, so release pressure before servicing and stop using a tank that shows rust or damage.
