Sir: I need a good air pump with 1.5 - 2 CFM output. Do you have any which are designed to do that? Thanks much.

These pumps are rated by Liters per min, you can find a conversion table by searching the net. This pump is rated at 70 Liters per minute which equals 2.47 cubic ft per min. As stated, you can double check by searching the net for conversion factors.

Hi Paul H,Is there any update ? Have you talked to your technician ? It's almost a week and that pump is still not doing anything, I really want it to work.Thank you.

Cfm is an ambiguous rating and it's difficult to say. I would say 38 would be better as it accounts for compressed volume of air. However if you are using power tools or anything that needs more air I would look much higher or you will see significant pressure drops. Something in the 100's at least or 200's would be ideal. I bought this and switched to a 200+ scfm and I only get a drop of 2-3psi. With this unit I experienced 20-30psi drop at full load.

Someone else ask about the air flow and I responded with this: I just tried inflating my air mattress with this, it took 24 seconds. My mattress inflated measures 70 X 52 X 8, so running the math I get an air flow of ~40CFM. I also tried the 12V version and it was really close, but just a couple seconds slower.

Hi Victoria, for air use I would use one of the Jordin or Como air valves. I used the Little Fishies for my powerhead to regulate water flow, I don't know if it would work for air. Also, the Little Fishies valves are for 1/2 and 5/8" tubing, which is quite large. I hope this helps. Ed.

You should order this pump with the product - it's the fastest/strongest on the marketSmart Air Beds High Output 400-watt A/C Electrical Air Bed Pump, Black

No, this pump puts out a very small amount of measured air. It would take forever

We used an air compressor also. It is a pretty big float for a manual pump but one would work. as said by others, your pump would need a pointed end. This is our second season and just filled a couple days ago. Great for keeping you above water while it's still a little brisk.

I don't believe this is suitable for that purpose. It's not actually an air compressor, where you have an instant volume of air at the press of a button. It's basically designed to pulsate or pump air into air inflatable devices such as vehicle tires, basketballs, etc. BUT... if you are looking for a FAST vehicle tire inflation pump, this is the ONE to get! I LOVE mine!

I used an air mattress pump I already had because it inflates really fast. It worked on this and blew it up in less than a minute. Pretty much any standard pump should work.

See my answer (to another consumer) dated 2/17/2014. Otherwise, I used a small portable air compressor I found at a garage sale (cost was $2.00, used). The pump worked fine, and I've kept the pump in my truck for the last 5+ years, for blowing up tires, etc.. Hope this helps.

most generic air pumps for air mattress work fine. The one we had for our air mattress worked, then I received one from someone that does the same job.

Wow, 2 years after the last post no one, not even a Conair competitor, has wandered into this discussion?? I am looking for a GOOD dual voltage hot air brush for my upcoming trip to Italy and am still finding very little. The Conair still has the same problem. I am always astounded to find a demand without a supply in this material world... am I looking in the wrong places?

It comes with an air pump. do not see why it wouldn't work with the other ones.

Lisa, a two or 3 gallon pancake compressor will suit this gun fine. I'm currently using a 27 gallon,(my only compressor I own) and it's complete overkill. This gun doesn't use much air at all. Good like with your purchase David

You need to find the correct air connection to fit your air compressor line, there are several different types. No you can not use a bicycle pump, the make a manual version of this product if you do not have an air compressor. I really like mine.

Hi... i used a regular pump like the one you use for bicycles. Just be mindful of the air pressure limits.Enjoy!
