Review: Quiet efficiency and a quality build - There’s an inevitability when you start thinking you need an air compressor. And that inevitability is that very soon after you buy it, you realize you need a bigger one. This is my third compressor purchase in three years, and likely the best. The previous two compressors were too small and way too noisy. They worked, but those drawbacks were maddening. After some research, I decided on this compressor and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. It’s quiet, has a large enough capacity (I’m exaggerating, of course I’d like to have a larger one), and so far appears to be very well built. The wheels, which are easy to install, are a must, as this California Air Tools product is on the weighty side at 82.5 pounds. The well designed handle and the chonky wheels make it easy to move around. Recommended for nailing, I’ve found that it also works well with my cut-off, staple, and impact driver tools. It runs on 110, has a 10-gallon tank, and is very, very quiet, thanks to a relatively slow rpm. Review: Great compressor, super quiet, runs air tools and I even painted my truck with it using a lvlp gun - I'm super happy with this product. I upgraded my little 2 gallon portable compressor which was hella loud and annoying, while this one is super duper quiet, I can't tell you how much I appreciate how quiet it is, I discovered pneumatic and I love those, this runs most air tools just fine, just pay attention to how much cfm they require when buying and your's will run well too. Air tools are cool, whole new world. I actually bought it because I wanted to paint my 66 ford ranchero with single-stage urethane in metallic british racing green and I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a larger compressor and didn't have a lot of space with the truck in the garage, I also wanted a quieter work environment. I picked up a little LVLP (low-volume low-pressure) spray gun from china that was about $120 bucks and even though a lot of people said it wouldn't work, it worked great (I had one redo but that was because I ran the paint haha, my fault). It also blows all the dust out of the garage quite well, especially with a 4' extendible barrel gun. all in all I'm pretty happy with it, I also use it to cool down spot welds when welding thin sheet metal, like body panels so they don't distort from the heat. Sometimes I wish I had more cfm so I could get a better paint gun that is HVLP but since I will only be painting cars once every year or two it fits the balance of my needs better. It's really nice you can still hear your stereo while it is running. So quiet it wouldn't even wake up a sleeping baby hahaha yeah naw that is an exaggeration but you get the point mate. ## Features - ULTRA QUIET PERFORMANCE: The California Air Tools 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet & Oil-Free Air Compressor operates at only 70 decibels; perfect for noise-sensitive environments; airflow 6.40 CFM at 40 PSI & 5.30 CFM at 90 PSI - POWERFUL OPERATION: Equipped with a powerful 2.0 HP motor running at only 1680 RPM, this ultra quiet air compressor creates less noise and wear - OIL-FREE DUAL PISTON PUMP: The oil-free dual piston pump system provides high performance and durability, with a life cycle of over 3000 hours; suitable for various temperatures and terrains, it ensures cleaner air and less maintenance - 10 GALLON STEEL TANK WITH WHEELS: This heavy duty portable air compressor with wheels features a 10-gallon steel tank that is perfect for jobsite, shop or garage use; it’s remarkably easy to transport around your workspace, enhancing flexibility - QUICK SETUP: The Easy Start Valve allows for quick start up using less starting amps; it requires less amps for start up in cold temperatures; product dimensions: L (16") x W (15.1") x H (35.9") ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0188XBTLY | | Additional Features | Portable | | Air Flow Capacity | 6.4 Cubic Feet Per Minute | | Best Sellers Rank | #92,325 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #56 in Portable Air Compressors | | Brand | California Air Tools | | Brand Name | California Air Tools | | Capacity | 10 Gallons | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,502 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00743369710035 | | Included Components | Air compressor | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 16"L x 15.1"W x 35.9"H | | Item Type Name | air compressor | | Item Weight | 82.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | California Air Tools- Home Improvement | | Manufacturer Part Number | 10020C | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 Year Limited Warranty | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Maximum Current | 14 Amps | | Maximum Horsepower | 2 Horsepower | | Maximum Power | 2 Horsepower | | Maximum Pressure | 125 Pound per Square Inch | | Metal Type | Steel | | Model Name | Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor | | Model Number | 10020C | | Noise | 70 Decibels | | Noise Level | 70 Decibels | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Recommended Uses For Product | Nailing | | Special Feature | Portable | | Style | Steel Tank, 110v | | Tank Volume | 10 Gallons | | UPC | 743369710035 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 110 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** California Air Tools - **Noise Level:** 70 Decibels - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Nailing - **Voltage:** 110 Volts ## Images ![California Air Tools 10020C 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor, 1... - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Lq0MjSQxL.jpg) ![California Air Tools 10020C 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor, 1... - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71zavPnfbpL.jpg) ![California Air Tools 10020C 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor, 1... - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XGDYNG-FL.jpg) ![California Air Tools 10020C 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor, 1... - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EjbKztRuL.jpg) ![California Air Tools 10020C 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor, 1... - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718df7ElJUL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is there any power benefit for going 240v such as more CFM?** A: More CFM? No, but there is a side benefit associated with 240V operation: less extraneous power loss in the motor windings, creating less heat, and in theory, extending the motor life over its brother 120V motor. **Q: i don't see a drain valve. how does it drain?** A: My drain valve is on the very bottom of the tank **Q: Where is this product made?** A: Says right on the box, "Made in China". Which was a big disappointment to me. **Q: My air compressor has stopped working how do I get warrantied** A: Your guess is good as mine. I purchased this compressor in 2015. Called George in customer service. I was told to take the heads off and, I explained to George, there was so many foreign bodies of metal and crap. I have used the compressor to air tires and clean chain on bicycles. The tank would not hold air, motor never shut off. For the next 2 years, I provided hospice care to my mother and father in law plus I broke my back. My complaint about the possibility of working with George on getting it replaced fell on deaf ears because now the defective compressor is out of warranty. I'm going to be a reasonable person here, you know George, sometimes life is a priority over a defective product and worthless warranty. I now have a 120# paper weight. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quiet efficiency and a quality build *by W***R on March 20, 2025* There’s an inevitability when you start thinking you need an air compressor.

VERY quiet. It's great for inflating tires, blowing dirt off the garage floor and even short sessions with light duty pneumatic tools like a small die grinder. Even though the marketing states it's "powerful" it's power is only useful for quickly filling the tank. Setup is simple and the design well thought-out. I was impressed with the quick-release connectors, good quality intake filters, easy to reach/use the water drain, substantial wheels and rubber feet to minimize vibration. Any "oiless" compressor is NOT meant to run continuously; if it runs for 15 minutes straight, shut it off or it WILL be ruined. The compressor is aluminum and run continuously, it WILL warp, either seizing or losing lots of pressure. It amazes me how some reviewers abuse this little guy and then complain about it. For any decent spray gun, I use a cast iron 5hp two stage 80 gallon model with an oil/water trap, built to run nearly continuously. Anything less than that, this is one heck of a good buy. This is my second compressor from California Air, a much smaller one at a shed which has limited electrical power. They import good stuff. A great buy for many projects. ## Frequently Bought Together - California Air Tools 10020C 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor, 10 Gallon Steel Tank with Wheels, 70 dBA Noise Level - Flexzilla Air Hose, 3/8 in. x 50 ft., 1/4 in.
