yes, good article - I would strongly disagree with only one statement and
that was the avoidance of industrial pumps - I have an industrial compressor
(Quincy) with a 5 hp single phase motor (compressor and motor weigh in at
near 1000 pounds) - it is hugely nicer than the homeowner specials and runs
nicely all day - and you can get these used for about what a "homeowner
special" costs. And if you get a good deal on a compressor with a 3 phase
motor, a couple of hundred $ will buy you a VFD to soft start and run it
nicely.
