Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you should buy or rent an air compressor depends on your project needs, budget, and long-term plans. Many of our customers choose to rent for flexibility, cost savings, and access to high-quality equipment without the commitment of ownership. Our customers also find it useful to rent air compressors before they buy them. This allows them to test the compressor’s fit for their needs before making a large investment.

For utility-construction projects, renting allows you to leverage our extensive network and get the right equipment when and where you need it. If your operation requires temporary additional capacity, a rental can help maintain uptime during maintenance, unexpected failures, or short-term construction demands.

Financial and regulatory considerations also play a role in this decision. Some businesses rent due to budget constraints, tax advantages, or EPA-compliance requirements that make ownership less practical. Whatever your situation, JHFOSTER provides reliable, well-maintained rental air compressors to keep your operation running smoothly.

The right air compressor size depends on your application, pressure requirements, and air-volume needs. We offer a full range of rental air compressors, from 50 HP to 450 HP electric-powered units. We also offer portable diesel compressors built for durability and efficiency. Our pipeline compressors’ capacities include:

  • 150 PSI, 1,600 CFM (Standard Pressure)
  • 350 PSI, 1,150 CFM (Medium Pressure)
  • 500 PSI, 900 CFM (Medium-High Pressure)
  • 2,175 PSI, 1,800 CFM (High Pressure)
