I bit the bullet and finally ordered a real air compressor for my home garage, it's an 80 gallon Eaton/Polar Air 5 HP with 19 SCFM @ 100 PSI. I'm very excited! I plan to do media blasting and painting with it. My buddy said I could use CPVC piping in lieu of copper since the current setup will hopefully only exist for about a year or so, at which point I'll be expanding the garage and redoing the piping. The CPVC I got is 3/4" and is rated for 400 PSI at 73*F and 100 PSI at 180*F. Does anyone know what sort of air temps I should expect coming out of the tank? I know this is not a recommend "best practice" way of doing things, but I just need it to last for about a year. Can I proceed with caution, or do I need to abort and start over with something like one of those Maxline HPDE kits? The cost of getting set up is spiraling out of control and I'm trying to keep costs down where I can.
