Answered by Melissa, the Air Compressor Expert
How loudly does the compressor run? Some sort of decibel rating would be great.

Re the Rolair VT25BIG. I blow out home plumbing systems when winterizing and want to know if I can plug this compressor into an outlet served by a 15 amp breaker and not have it trip the breaker.
Thanks
