Reviews
I have difficulty breathing through a regular mask. this unit makes it so able to be in that environment. A respirator that you have to pull air through contains a portion of already used air this system keeps fresh air immediately available I love it. Respirators @30$ apiece, will let this unit pay for itself soon enough
This unit is the best tool I’ve bought. I use it for everything, painting with ISO’s or not, sandblasting, sanding body filler, etc. The money you save on charcoal filters and particlulate filters means it eventually pays for itself. Plus you can let friends borrow it in exchange for beer. These things are built to last.
very portable,does the job needed,keeping me healthy
Excellent product quiet running motor
I just used this for the first time today. It is absolutely terrific! I was on the fence about spending the money. I had used the cartridge type respirators. They're fine for a two minute paint job or for dust but with the new paints and projects more than a few minutes, this can't be beat! Love, love it. Thanks!
Same experience as James H. This unit gets extremely hot you can’t touch the box or breath the air. I spoke with hobby air and was told if it didn’t start working probably I would need to return it to place of purchase. ACS issued a return label and RMA now they are telling me they can’t help after I already sent them the unit back. I’ve always used ACS as my main parts supplier. I’m really let down in there customer service after the sale. I’ll definitely will consider other vendors from this point on.

Per the supplier: The Hobbyair has a HEPA filter. The system is designed to deliver fresh / clean air from somewhere other than the area you are working in. This is why we make our systems with hose lengths from 40 to 160 feet long. If you locate the air pump in fresh air, then, yes, the system will deliver fresh air to your hood or mask all day. The HEPA filter will filter out dust etc. that are in the (fresh) air. I hope that helps.
400 watts would be required to run the system.
No, this is a one person unit with 2 hoses at 40', totalling 80'. The 2-person unit is the Buddy System like part number 12-15870.
Hobbyair 1 has 40' of hose, and the Hobbyair 2 has 80' of hose to the mask.
Yes, you could use it while working with fiberglass.
Per Vendor: "The turbine we use for our respirators has an appropriate (much lower) volume for breathing. Trying to breathe through a sprayer turbine would be very hot and way too much air."
It should work with a goatee, but it would depend on if its extremely long, braided, etc etc. We do have a hood that works with this system, it is part number 12-03319.
Clean with an anti-bacterial soap and allow to dry before storage.
Yes, this has a speed control so can increase the amount of air.
