Air-Con Valves’ Post

Air-Con Valves reposted this

It’s always a best practice to be mindful of your filters and ensure you’re checking them regularly… but the type of filter media you use is very important too. Eric Pressley, a Service Technician for Elevated Industrial Solutions, came across a client that found an “interesting” way to avoid installing a new inlet filter for their aging air compressor – a roll of toilet paper! The team installed a new, properly-sized inlet filter to assure a low pressure drop and proper air quality being ingested into the system. Do you have a crazy maintenance or systems story to share? Reach out to Troy Dreier at troy@airbestpractices.com for the opportunity to be featured in a future issue.

The good thing is there is no dirt and no air. Works great I guess?

Is that a Charmin Ultra soft filter or Scott 1000? 😂
