Anyone know how many CFM this thing pumps out? In the video it doesn't look like it is moving much air.

I do not know. I have a 32 foot run beyond the blower with (2) 90 degree bends. It blows hard enough to kill the foliage on a hemlock shrub 6 feet from the discharge ( with a 30 degree cap ) ! It is effective !! DAN

It seems to blow the same. I do not use the cool button. I just turned it on and held in the cool button, and the air flow seemed the same.

The pump is rated at 2.9 psi. Performance drops off significantly at higher pressures. I'd get a different pump, I notice a significant drop in flow between 3 and 4 feet.

One of your pumping pistons isn't re-extending for the next pump and so it's only pumping at half pressure.That's how mine died, I haven't figure out a fix yet.

it moves quite a lot of air. if you put it at the bottom of a staircase and have a door open, i could see it doing that. the problem is then the draw, where is the air coming down into the basement from that will replace the air you are moving up? if it's from the same staircase then I could just see a loop.

Great question! I actually had to plug in mine and check it out. To answer your question there should be air coming out UNDER the canister. Perhap the air is blowing, "reflecting," around the actual canister. Gabe, I don't think I'd worry about it unless the amount of air is a lot. Then we may be looking at an actual leak in the vacuum tubing.Have a great New Year. My best, bob

Mine has only filled up one time. I am currently not drawing air from outside, just exhausting to outside and it is working well.

Slight airflow is normal. The unit is not a fan, but it must circulate the air a little in order to clean it.

it is all about "gallons per minute/quarts/ounces". See if you can find some type of fuel usage rate on the outboard,,the web has a lot of information. Then compare to the max output of the pump which states 35 gallons per hour. there needs to be more gpm available at the pump. Also, make sure the fuel line(s) are not kinked and the fuel filter is not clogged in any matter, including the portable fuel tank suction - sometimes there is a screen or filter there. Also, the priming squeeze bulb that is usually on this application may have a restriction. If all looks in order and the fuel usage rate is too much for pump, you could get another pump and parallel or series install to see if that improves the motor speed.

I would suggest a unit with a higher CFM speed to better, and faster, circulate the air in your shop. I have a smaller shop so the lesser capacity is not a problem.Regards, John

That doesn't sound right. We used ours for about 2 weeks, and only added more air maybe once or twice a week

I have not had a problem with mine. Did you check out the video's on how to clean the pump? That might help.

Hi Paul H,Is there any update ? Have you talked to your technician ? It's almost a week and that pump is still not doing anything, I really want it to work.Thank you.

Someone else ask about the air flow and I responded with this:I just tried inflating my air mattress with this, it took 24 seconds. My mattress inflated measures 70 X 52 X 8, so running the math I get an air flow of ~40CFM. I also tried the 12V version and it was really close, but just a couple seconds slower.

Sorry for the delayed answer just saw this. It's a slow flow. It only came with one in the box

mema666, i think the issue would be how hard you thing is sucking. i have not seen my do this. maybe test the pressure that is being sucked up?

I used an air pump. Never saw where it said otherwise. Took a matter if seconds to inflate.
