Well said Sieg!
The less the compressor runs -- the less water.
Best plumbing website I've found FOR IDEAS HOW TO RUN LINES ETC --- is TP TOOLS.
DO NOT BUY THEIR PLUMBING -- they use IRON PIPE -- what happens when you mix water and iron?
Personally -- all my plumbing is COPPER... all my "take off lines" run UP from the main supply lines -- and there's a drain at the bottom of every take off... and an oil/water separator on the main. You'd be amazed at how much water blows out when I open the drain valve.
You'll see how this all works on the TP Tools website. The key is to not push water directly to your tool... YOU WILL have water in the lines. Now it's just a matter of dealing with it.
So in the Pacific NorthWET -- we have high humidity.... and if you think about compressing AIR -- you're also compressing that humidity at the same rate. We're not separating the INTAKE air from the moisture held in it! Thus - we do that on the output side. I'd say it sucks -- but really -- it blows! HAHAHAHAHA
