Is the drain valve reasonably accessible? Or would you recommend an extension for the valve?
Thanks

Answer
It's on the bottom of the tank. Some replace the brass drain valve with an elbow, pipe nipple & ball valve to make draining the tank more accessible.

Where is the CP model RCP-226VP manufactured?
George

Answer
This compressor is assembled in the US from components of domestic & foreign sources. We do not know of any all made in US single stage compressors. The Quincy two stage & Jenny air compressors are still made in the USA.

Good evening,
I have a couple more questions about the CP model RCP-226VP. Is this compressor shipped with oil in it? I ask because I wanted to know if it can be layed down on it's side or at how much of an angle can it be tipped while unloading. Being a portable I'm sure it can be tilted some. If I can angle it off the back of the truck I can save $75.00 as the weight itself, at 165lbs. isn't an issue.
Thanks,
Craig

Answer
Most manufacturers ship their compressor pumps dry, but despite what the operators' manuals state some oil may be in the pump. This could be due to quality control testing or to prevent premature failure if customers start the compressor before checking the pump oil level.
Also, be aware that transporting a compressor on it's side could damage some of the components that stick out from the tank/pump.

What is the dB on this model?
Jay

Answer
Hello,
The air compressor industry has not agreed to a consistent method for measuring the sound level of their products. So any dB numbers stated have no correlation to any other manufacturer's specs.
