What is the Difference Between Horizontal and Vertical Air Compressors?
Realistically, there is no meaningful difference between horizontal and vertical air compressors except for the way that the hardware is arranged. The basic idea is that a it will help save floor space since the length of its tanks runs up and down as opposed to across. Typically the motor will sit at the base of the unit with the tank running up above it. As a consequence, when left sitting in a given location, it takes up less horizontal space, though of course it takes up more vertical space. The primary advantage of vertical air compressors is to small businesses and offices that need compressed air but have limited floors pace and would prefer them be stored out of sight. A good example might be a dentist’s office (as they use a lot of pneumatic tools in dental care) or a small rented workshop. Most vertical compressors can be wheeled about in a fashion similar to moving a hand truck and can therefore easily be positioned in a disused closet or corner. This portability also makes
