What size air compressor should I purchase to blow out an inground
pools water lines. Also to blow out an outside water line that runs
under ground and approximately 70 feet slightly uphill to a water
faucet used by the pool.


Most anything will do. Since it doesn't have to hold pressure for long
periods of time, a used one would suffice. Shop around. DO NOT buy an
oilless. They are obnoxiously noisy and wear out quickly. You should be
able to get a good used one pretty cheap.

Correction: Do not buy a cheap oilless. The expensive oilless are fine.
