Husky air compressor noise problem?
I bought a Husky 5.2HP - 25 Gallon air compressor.
It’s a Vertical maintenance free/Oil-less pump style.
My question is; why is it so damn loud?!
It takes a good 5-10 minutes to fill up, and during that time it about drives you insane with the noise level.
Are all Husky’s overly noisy?
The thing sounds like it doesn’t even have a muffler attached… heck maybe it doesn’t!
Is there any way to muffle the noise of the pump, like with foam padding or something without restricting the air intake?
Anyone have similar experiences?
Answer:
Unfortunately it's the nature of the design. You've got a short stroke pump being spun at crazy speed to deliver a small burst of air to fill a huge tank. It's also why it's rated @ 5.2 H.P. but has the same compressor pump as lesser rated/smaller units. Beware of the heat that pump creates and don't block airflow. Also pay attention to the tools the manufacturer does and doesn't recommend. No high volume tools should be used with this compressor.
