VMAC Underhood Air Compressor Systems
Capital Buick GMC has been installing VMAC Underhood Air Compressor Systems for over 2 years. We have installed them on Dodge, Ford, and GMC vehicles. Need Air? That’s easy – YES, of course – what service truck, utility truck or job site doesn’t? But what is the best source? VMAC is recognized as a leader in the development of world-class mobile air compressor systems. VMAC has revolutionized the mobile compressed air industry with patented Rotary Screw compressor system technology. Save valuable hitch space or deck space by mounting your air compressor UNDERHOOD.

UNDERHOOD compressor system advantages:
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| 100% Duty Cycle | No Down Time = Less time to complete the job = higher profits |
| Air on Demand | Save valuable time charging air-cylinder = Less time to complete the job = higher profits Air when you need it. Whether it be fire, military or municipal, instant air can be imperative under certain circumstances. |
| Compact Design | The VR70 & VR150 are conveniently mounted underhood which saves valuable cargo and work space or the need to tow a trailer, or allow you to tow a trailer for other job site accessories. |
| Light Weight | Decreased payload reduces the wear and tear of your vehicle while at the same time increases fuel economy. The VR150 which provides up to 150 CFM and 175 PSI weighs in at only 206 lbs. VMAC compressors are mounted under the protection of the vehicles hood which limits moisture and corrosion extending the life of the compressor. When properly maintained, VMAC compressors should last for the service life of your vehicle. The underhood mounting system utilizes the engines heat during the coldest months of winter preventing icing and ensuring maximum efficiency of the compressor. Loss of time De-Icing your compressor is now a thing of the past. No need for towable air compressors. Your competitor may not be able to tow a heavy trailered compressor to the job site. With your VMAC compressor, if you can drive your truck to the site…you have air. |
| Underhood Mount | No additional vehicles or manpower required to tow auxillary equipment. Your truck engine powers the compressor. There are no additional engines to maintain or carry additional fuel for. Again saving you time, money and energy. No impediments to mobility through traffic. You can be assured of a little more ‘peace of mind’ knowing that you or one of your staff are not trying to negotiate heavy traffic, park in precarious situations, and backup when space can be limited. |
| Reduced Vehicle Insurance Costs | Tow behind compressors are the target of thieves since the units can be stolen in minutes. You can feel confident that your investment in a VMAC Underhood Compressor is safe. |
| No requirement for air receiver tank | Vehicle efficiency is increased through weight reduction and aerodynamics because there is no need to install a receiver tank and the air/oil separator tank is mounted in a location where additional drag (air turbulence) is limited. VMAC compressors allow for instant pressure of up to 150 CFM and 175 PSIG. |
| Noise reduction | There are no inlet or discharge valves and no unbalanced forces as in the reciprocating type compressors which accounts for the substantial noise level reduction resulting in ease of communication on the job site. |
| Cost | VMAC Compressors cost less than tow behind compressors, cost less to maintain and also save money when considering the cost of trailer insurance, tire replacement, bearing maintenance, engine servicing, etc. |
