A company producing vinyl siding was using a lower pressure blower to blow water off the product as it came out of its production machine. But the blower failed, and the staff quickly rigged up some compressed air nozzles consuming about 50 cfm. An air auditor noticed this misuse and flagged it as an inappropriate use — costing about $6,000 per year in energy costs.

Running a lubricated screw compressor at light loading can lead to a critical issue known as oil carryover, where excess lubrication oil escapes the compressor into the downstream air system. This problem, while often overlooked, can result in costly operational challenges, particularly in food processing plants where air purity is critical. Lubricated screw compressors rely on oil for sealing, cooling, and lubrication within the compression elements.
