Disclaimer: Atlanta Compressor is not affiliated with Kaishan. We provide independent service and replacement options.
Why Independent Service Matters
Compressed air keeps manufacturing plants running. When a compressor fails, downtime can cost thousands per hour. According to the International Society of Automation, the average cost of downtime across industries is $5,600 per minute【source: https://www.isa.org】.
That’s why more manufacturers trust Atlanta Compressor. We service all major brands—Kaishan, Quincy, Kaeser, Atlas Copco, and more—without the restrictions of being tied to one manufacturer.
The Call: A Plant at Risk
A regional food packaging plant reached out after their Kaishan unit showed pressure drops and noise issues. Backup units had to be switched on, driving up energy costs.
They needed a fast response before production losses became critical.
Rapid Response Within 2 Hours
At Atlanta Compressor, our 2-hour response time for members ensures plants aren’t left waiting.
A certified technician arrived the same morning and conducted a full inspection:
- Oil and filters
- Electrical Readings
- System temperatures
- Pressure drop readings
- Control settings
The culprit was clear: a clogged separator and overdue oil change.

Corrective Action on the Kaishan Unit
The technician replaced the separator, installed new OEM-quality filters, and completed an oil change with premium compressor oil.
