Stick a borescope down in there and take a peek.
I like the 5 year all included warranty. I think I will call them. Plus they make a horizontal which I like.Take a look at Eaton Compressors. I have a 13hp Honda powered on my service truck and a 5 hp single phase in my equipment shop. Great compressors and very nice people to deal with. You can call Matt Cain the owner or Meagan South his daughter and both will fix you up. I have a T30 Ingersoll in car shop here at house. I would go with either of these again, Joe

Well I thought I’d try and get a few bucks out of it on Craigslist. Like 300.00. Still works good and handles everything other than my blasting cabinet. I had the 5 hp motor rebuilt 2 years ago.Whatchya gonna do with the old one, Roy? I think the tank on my big outside one has a lot of rust on it.

Menards is selling this one right now. Pretty reasonable and it fits your criteria pretty well except that is a vertical type. I have one very similar to this one and I like it a lot.I like the 5 year all included warranty. I think I will call them. Plus they make a horizontal which I like.

Here's a Champion rated at 19 cfm @125 psi. Quincy has rated their compressors at higher pressures for a long time. I don't know the reasoning other than the numbers are bigger and it looks more impressive. https://www.tptools.com/Champion-5H...MIs_yN2pzv6QIVBNbACh0oAQRXEAQYAiABEgLSkfD_BwEAhh the sales literature trick.... listing a high pressure of 175psi. The uninformed folks would think it’s a great air compressor (compared to the 100psi rated unit beside it) without realizing hardly any tools require 175psi and free air delivered is a lot lower at that pressure compared to 100psi. Plus cranking your pressure up exacerbates cfm lost to leaks. There’s not much need to operate any system above 100 psi unless you’re blowing PET bottles or the odd application that requires 125 or 140 psi.
Some peeps then get lured by the crazy cfm ratings too. A good rule of thumb for a piston compressor is no more than 4cfm/hp at 100psi. 15cfm from a 2hp compressor at 90 or 100psi isn’t going to happen.

Hey can you tell me exactly how tall the whole unit is? I need to see if I’m going to have to raise the Lean to I have over my existing compressor.This the one I have. Ask for Matt or Megan and they will help you out' It is good to call a company and be able to talk to the owner or his daughter. They will do what they say.
