Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why should I carry a portable air compressor?
Carrying a compressor allows you to correct tyre pressure anywhere for safety and fuel efficiency, providing a vital lifeline during roadside emergencies.
2. What is the difference between a 12V compressor and a battery-powered one?
A 12V compressor plugs directly into your vehicle for endless power, making it more reliable for emergencies than battery units which can lose charge over time.
3. Will a portable compressor inflate van and motorhome tyres?
Yes. Our heavy-duty compressors deliver up to 150 PSI, making them fully capable of inflating tyres on cars, commercial vans, 4x4s, and motorhomes.
4. How often should I check my tyre pressure?
We recommend checking your tyre pressure at least once a month and before any long journey to ensure safe handling and optimal fuel economy.
5. Are digital tyre inflators better than analogue ones?
Digital models offer greater precision and are easier to read in the dark. Our units also feature an auto-shutoff function to automatically stop at the correct pressure.
6. Can I use a car tyre pump for bicycles and sports equipment?
Yes. Our compressors include a set of valve adaptors, making them perfect for inflating bicycle tyres, footballs, and camping equipment.
7. Do I need to jack up the car to inflate the tyre?
No. Our modern compressors are powerful enough to inflate the tyre fully while it is still bearing the weight of the vehicle.
