Does this need a air compressor or vacuum pump? How can air compressor generate suction? Is it necessary to get Mityvac 7205 Accessory Kit?

it needs an air compressor. It creates suction through I believe is similar to a venturi suction, Where air is flowing past an angled tube creating a vacuum in the tube there by creating suction. The 6835 kit has all the adapters, I only bought the 7205 kit for the valve

Yes you need a source of compressed air. Uses, if I recall from college, Bernoulli's principal by creating low pressure from high speed air flow.

No pump, I used my home compressor. You can use an inexpensive foot pump. Fyi have 2 of these floats in my pool love them.

I just checked the manual. There is no area to hook up a vacuum hose. Sorry.

No, you will need an air compressor, with pressure regulator, filter and moisture trap.

You will need an air compressor to make it work. Also an air hose and a threaded adapter.

Hi Johnny E. I haven't used this particular Mityvac as yet. I have used an earlier model without a problem.

This kit is simply for the compressor and tubing. It does not include the air bags, you will have to purchase them separately .

No. I just needed the wand...the compressor can be bought separately or you can purchase the entire unit. It is not that expensive.

Yes it does need an air compressor. The required operating pressure is 70 to 110 PSI. I run mine at 85 PSI and it works just fine. It does not use a lot of air and a small compressor that shuts off at 125 PSI should work well around the house.

Its so easy, it takes about 2 min with a small shop vac and you reverse the hook up so it blows air instead of vacuums. I do this for air mattresses, floating island I have and a 12' floating trampoline. I use the small "Stinger" Vac available from Home Depot for about $40, a little more than a 12v mini useless pump.

The compressor has enough to run it. but ig you use it for any length of time you might run out of air.

All you will need is an air chuck. They sell them separately but I recommend buying the combination kit which also includes the quick connect adapters, a blow gun and sometimes a pressure gauge to check the tire pressure. I think this compressor is an outstanding deal. I use mine as a portable air tank. I air it up in my garage. When it reaches pressure and shuts off I disconnect the electrical plug and carry it out to the car and truck in the driveway. You not only save dragging out and winding up the extension but connecting it directly to the wall plug avoids the possibility of overloading the extension cord if it is not a heavy enough gauge.

It comes 2 extra accessories. You don't need to buy any until you buy the vaccum to see if you need a different one.

A vacuum cleaner worked fine for me. If you need more power, the Black & Decker pump is good.

,We used an air compressor or a portable rechargeable battery pump. The. Tube has 2 chambers. Hope this helps you.

Yes, the vacuum requires a 120VAC power source (plug). While that may be inconvenient for some, it provides a much better vacuum than a DC vacuum since it has more power.

It comes with an adapter. If your vacuum has a standard hose end you won't even need to use it. I've used my set of attachments with several different makes and types of Vacs without any problems.
