I install a TPEE hose and push connector 3/8" shop air setup after talking through how to design an effective, budget layout for your home garage or small shop that includes important water separation, dryer, air filtration and lubrication - and all the necessary fittings. The primary components come from Primefit's 26-Piece Air Push to Connect Kit, supplemented by other Primefit product (see inventory list below).
My compressed air system consists of a primary air/water separator plus desiccant bead filter before splitting three ways at a manifold. The first line goes directly to a suspended air hose reel for general duty. The second passes through another set of filters that add another air filter for more water removal, plus a regulator to decrease PSI for smaller pneumatic tools, and an oil lubricator to provide air tool oil to the line downstream. The third line only contains another air/water separator to remove as much water as possible since it is used as a painting air source.
