Hi All,
Looking at a new 1/2HP Rocking piston compressor.
Which compressor should I go with? Matala seems to have a year warranty and the Air Pro is two years.
Should I Shy away from one or the other? Anything out there better for the price range?
Thanks!

How about a bit of info on what you are trying to aerate? Depth, size, goal in general? Some units are better equipped for the job than others-depending on intended use. Depth is a major player here..

Use the rocking piston model for depths over 16ft.
