Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Small Compressors
A small compressor is a compact, portable air compressor designed for light to medium-duty tasks. It’s ideal for powering pneumatic tools, inflating tyres, spray painting, DIY projects, and small industrial applications.
Small compressors typically come in electric (110V or 230V), petrol, and diesel variants. Electric compressors are quieter and suitable for indoor use, while petrol and diesel models offer greater portability and power for outdoor or remote jobs.
Consider your required air pressure (measured in bar or PSI), airflow (CFM or L/min), and tank size based on the tools or applications you plan to run. Our experts can help you select the perfect model tailored to your needs.
Noise levels vary by model and power source. Many of our electric small compressors feature silenced designs, operating at around 65-70 dB, which is quieter than typical construction equipment.
Regular maintenance includes checking and changing oil (for lubricated models), cleaning or replacing air filters, draining condensate from the tank, and inspecting hoses and fittings. We offer full servicing and genuine parts to keep your compressor running smoothly.

We had a Clarke for a couple of years that we abused running it 12 hours a day. We found CAS UK when it needed a repair, and we were very impressed with how quickly they responded and came out to repair and service the machine.
Our business started to expand and we needed a large compressor with a proper airlines feeding our machines and work stations. The guys from CAS supplied the new compressor and worked flat out getting the machine and pipe working in.
They're a brilliant group of lads with a great work ethic and really easy to communicate with.
We'll 100% continue to use and recommend them.
Very efficient at every level.
Quite a rare find ~ don't waste the opportunity if you have a need within their expertise. Mike Fisher
