Multiple Comps
One thing in my reply to you yesterday that I didn't make clear is that the compressor tanks have to be plumbed together if you run from a single pressure switch. Also, no check valves. Otherwise the system would be highly dangerous. The only check valves you need are the ones on the unloader valves. These are the ones that make the hissing sound for a few seconds after the compressor shuts off. This allows the compressor to start without the tank pressure on the piston.
