I want to run hard line from my compressor to my air reel that is mounted in teh center of my 2 car garage.

After a lot of research I have found that I cannot use PVC pipe as when it gives out it basically explodes like glass. I also discovered that you need to run drops to let the moisture escape.

I was wondering if anyone on here has run a line from a compressor to a reel in a hidden/nice fashion.

I was thinking that I would just get some 1/2" or 3/4" HD hose and clamp it to the wall also, but I would still need a way for the moisture to escape.

Thanks
Aaron

we have copper piping in our shed/shop, its all the way to the ceiling, so its kinda hidden.

I used the high pressure PVC and worked great for me. Otherwise use galvanized threaded piping. That will work good.
