Good point Phil
We actually have two in the barn...... one permanently attached on the sandblasting cabinet and one on the wall by the main outlets which I can pipe my lines in for special painting or plasma use........
The hot Summer days are worst.... this time of the year the ambient air is fairly dry. With the compressor in the attic the first iron line goes down about 11 feet and has a tee followed by a ball valve and a 12 inch straight section that is capped. It is easy to open the tap and let the line water drip in the capped section.......close valve remove cap and drain. This is before the usual water trap which also needs regular draining of 3 to 4 ounces of water.....makes you wonder sometimes if the iron pipes are nto connected to the house well system....!!!!!! The worst accumulation of water remains in the tank itself.
What I would give for a sticky warm Summer day right now.....
